Rob - do the neighbours have similar troubles?
Have you checked your box against the list that don't do the latest signalling mode?
Brian will know if SH changed recently?

Rob - it's not one of the above is it?
If it used to work, but now does not, but other freeview does work from same aerial, maybe broken. How old? Return to seller for new one?
Have you tried a factory reset?
And/or a scan with no aerial, to clear out?

AFAIK any PVR will record any freeview channel. Though I have never tried the paid for "free"view channels. Are they paid?
Ask Argos/Currys?
As a general point, anything that will record from a SCART connection is presumably post-descrambling?
The more I think the more confuddled I get!
Hopefully Brian or other wise men around!

Brian - According to the data above, BBCB uses "HD" where others use "2k" or "8k"

NOTE: D3&4 and HD use transitional S1 antenna until 27 June 2012.
Nigel - Brian's note, above, may relate?
Also C21 is at the extreme of the aerial respnse range.

We are so used to other problems that actual hardware failure is the last thought!

Mike/Alan - You do not need a license unless you actually USE your TV to receive live broadcast channels.
But you do need it even if you can't receive ANY BBC channels!

... UK digital TV reception predictor
As you seem to be on top of the transmitter you can probably receive with no aerial at all - or a sketchley loop.

RW - have a look at the Sandy H page. In fact your questions might get responses from locals there.
NB the note about temporary low power.
Did you ask neighbours?
