I can't get Freeview yet, when will it start in my area? |

Complicated issue here.

Just installed new Aerial and 75ohm Cable throughout the house the new Aerial is located on the West side of property facing South toward the Winterbourne Stickland Transmitter 4.9 miles away.

Prior to installing all the new gear I was receiving all Freeview channels through a NEW SAMSUNG TV we purchased that has its own built in Freeview Receiver, this was also the case prior to renewing the Aerial and Coax.

Initially the signal strength was coming in at 36% after fitting the above it increased to just over 60% but the quality is only 10%.

We have two TVs in the children's bedrooms with built in Freeview but these are unable to receive any Freeview at this time, in fact they only just receive 4 of the Analogue channels TV to some satisfactory degree.

In my bedroom I have a HUMAX Freeview Box that I purchased about 4 years ago it was very expensive at the time, I am unable to receive any over the air updates for the system, updates were available this week as I checked the update listings for the model I have specifically, I am also unable to receive any Freeview through the HUMAX due to NO or WEEK SIGNAL yet the signal is showing 60% but as above only 10% on Quality.

Any advice would be welcomed.
