Is this a first, an enquiry not a moan'!!!!
When undertaking an installation [Mendip transmitter] whilst I get the correct local bbc transmission on channel 1, on the bbc news channel 80 I always get the London local news, can this be corrected or will this always be the case??
Will the splendid service you provide continue once DSO has been fully implemented?
Thanks for all the information and good advice given todate!!!
Regards

Off the mendip transmitter trying to watch on freeview ch 24 the tour de france but have continual picture/audio breakup - assume this to be [i] atmospheric & [ii] low power tramsmission - nothing can be done about [i] but hopefully this will improve when full power transmission begins next year!!!
Bath repeater is not transmitting freeview ch24 amongst others are there plans for repeaters to become fully functional or will user in this and similar areas always be the poor relations?

Bath repeater is transmitting a limited number of freeview, are there plans for the repeater to become fully functional or will user in this and similar areas always be the poor relations?

Moving to house on post code ba22 7pa. I know that this house picks up from Stockhill transmitter but wonder if it would be possible to get a signal from the mendip transmitter?

My Humax freeview box failed to function again, causing my wife considerable stress which inn turn gave me gbh of the ear. Problem has been solved by a software upgrade issued by Humax. The reason for the problem [according to Humax] is 'There was a change in the broadcast signals that we werent aware of which has now been rectified by this update.' My question is who is responsible for the changes and why are they occuring. This is the 2nd time I have had this problem in recent weeks

The Humax box has stopped working yet again. If this is for the same reason as given before [see my entry for 22nd December], just what is happening to digital transmissions?

My Humax box is once again working as expected following the s/w upgrade. The reason for the need to upgrade is:-
'We believe that this problem is being caused the broadcasters changing the way that they send out the signals. The unit should now work fine.'
How much more disruption can we expect before digital switch-over is complete?
Are any other freeview boxes experiencing similar issues; feedback would be appreciated!!

jb38 Humax box is pvr9300t, can confirm all freeview channels are good at the moment. Not sure about the excuse being offered by Humax for the problems I'm having, thay's why I asked for feedback!

Just retuned my mico stb231 freeview box and notice that bbc3&4 are flaky now, is there an obvious reason for this. All station that were flaky before pwr increase now seem to be stable.
