I am on the edge of the area in Bucks. Consequently my is mounted on a high . I bought a new 4k Hitachi TV yesterday. It does not pick up any channels from BBCB or COM7 muxes. At one stage it did register BBC4 HD (COM7) but I have since lost that. My previous Panasonic TV did not have this problem although I occasionally got service interruption and pixelation on the HD channels that are broadcast by these muxes.

Any suggestions as to how I might resolve the issue and/or why I only experience this problem on a new TV and specific muxes? Thanks.

Thanks Mike. The strength and are both barely registering (under 10%) when I do manual tune for those muxes with occasional spikes on strength but not quality. My post code is HP9 1BW. Strictly I think we may be about 10 metres off the map. We are at the top of a hill. Our neighbours have resorted to and maybe we'll have to do the same. I think the previous owners of our house erected a tall to compensate for the slope we are very much towards the top of. Do you think a high might do the trick?

Thanks Mike. I confess that, looking at the , it looks to be pointing more due east than south east towards so maybe the wind has caught it. I will also have a poke around in the where there's both an of some sort and a distribution unit but how I will check theyre working, I'm not sure! I wired a new from the socket to the TV at the weekend but that didn't.

Thanks for all your help.
