Hi,

A little help would be appreciated in respect of Ch58 (770Mhz). After a full retune, today, a number of channels are apparently on Ch58, with terrible dropout.

Postcode: BR6 8ES
Loft aerial pointing to Crystal Palace (with generally excellent reciption, except as follows).

Specifically...

This is only happening with one receiver. All others have been beaten into releasing their old channel info and now work fine.

The affected unit is (naturally!) our primary receiver (and our only HD-capable one)

This is a Humax Fox-T2 which has been factory reset and a fully retuned (as best we can see). It receives HD programs fine, but a bunch of stations are listed as being on Ch58 (770000Khz) which is indicating poor signal strength & quality (this is reflected in massive picture/sound drop out).

The 'problem' stations I've checked are: ITV 1 (and +1), Channel 4 (and +1), Channel 5, ITV 2, More 4, E4 - these are all set to C58.

Any help and suggestions would be most appreciated.

Thanks.


Regards,

Andy

Terrible signal strength for London Live (538Mhz) in BR6 (Bromley)?
I'm in what appears to be in an excellent position to receive all freeview channels from Crystal Palace and, indeed get 100% quality reported by my Humax T2 receiver for all relevant frequencies except 538Mhz, which is reported as 10% signal and 10% quality by the receiver, effectively rendering London Live unwatchable.
Whilst this is a regional channel, can anyone advise of there is any reason why this should be the case, given I'm in a relatively high location, only a handful of miles from the transmitter and with excellent reception on all other channels?
Thanks
