Simon.London,SW15 6DQ.
Have you suddenly regained all the lost channels now at this moment in time while i am either texting to you,or by the time you read my text as such.
One likelyhood could be the inversion effect which i would strongly look up,or was there a thunderstorm at your location or nearby when you texted yesterday (Sat 7 July 2012),at 9.50pm which caused the temporary loss of signal from either Crystal Palace main transmitter,Reigate or Kensal Town relays which serves your communal aerial.
As for your communal aerial itself,is it a group A (red tipped) polarised horizontally facing Crystal Palace,or if vertically polarised is it facing Reigate (most likely a group W black tipped wideband) or again vertically polarised aimed at Kensal Town tipped green (group C/D) or tipped brown (group E semi-wideband) as such ?
If everything by now is okay then inversion (most likely) or thundery activity (less likely but possible?) are likely causes,if still problematic then as you stressed in your last text check upon normal opening hours,especially the aerial set up (horizontal/vertical polarisation and the coloured tips indicating grouped antennas),you may have to inform the landlord/landlady if the communal antenna is still at fault as such !

Martin McCloskey.Did you rescan automatically.If your larger HD ready TV allows try manual scanning the affected multiplex you indicated as such,which is Mux1 on frequency 67 from Limavady.

Terri,Chatham.No problem whatsoever.
However in your circumstance as you experienced the difficulty of losing Film4 which is carried on the ArqB multiplex from main transmitters and major relay masts,leaving a full postcode preferably is necessary to ascertain the reception probabilities in your location.
This is to prescribe as a doctor would say the right course of treatment to the symptom of the cause of someones discomfort.
To rephrase,the experts on here (im not a fully qualified expert by the way,but i do attain some wee knowledge in this field) by judging ones locality with the likelyhood of which transmissions are broadcast to/from ones location as such,can get to the bottom of ones difficulties by ascertaining the possibilities of which transmitter/relay one is experiencing difficulties from at somebody's destination,hence a full postcode gives detailed possibilities as such so the right course of action by everybody using this forum can distribute to those requiring assistance like yerself as an example.
