Thanks for that. Pre-digital I was tuned to Anglia but when I converted to digital, the installer lined me up with Waltham. I had it changed back to Sandy to receive Anglia again. It seems I will have to go back to Waltham : (

There are no reported problems with the Sandy transmitter but I have not been able to receive anything on channels 27 and 24 since 17.00 today. Anyone have any clues?

Well, another evening of grief with the Sandy transmitter. Cleared all the channels and manually retuned - it made no difference (as expected).
Since the switchover, I have lost count of the number of times I have retuned. I have replaced the aerial, twice. Had new boosters. Taken off boosters, all at considerable cost for something i didn't ask for in the first place. It has all made no difference.
My hdr regularly fails to record, because the signal breaks up resulting in missed programmes that I really did want to see. I watch more on iplayer/itv player than I watch live and it makes me wonder why I fork out for a licence every year.
If you had such consistently bad service from a garage, you would go somewhere else. So I have. Virgin ordered. Goodbye Digital con trick. Out.

Hi,
I am having a few problems since retuning, as advised by the latest on screen message. My postcode is PE3 8LD and I am tuned to the Sandy transmitter (but see below).
Problem 1.
My main tv is a recently purchased Samsung LED model. The aerial is external on a 3 metre pole and was replaced when I went digital. I also have a signal booster. I can get all the channels I should.....but, I now get BBC Look North, from Belmont presumably, instead of BBC Look East which is a complete mystery bearing in mind the aerial points at Sandy, in exactly the opposite direction to Belmont. Am I getting a signal off the back of the aerial? If so, what is the point of aligning it?
Problem 2.
I also have a Sony receiver/HDD recorder and can not now get channels 8,10,27,30,31,38,39,44,47,60,62 and 72. I have cleared out the original channels and replaced them with the retuned ones. There doesn't appear to be any manual tune option with this item.
Problem 3.
I have a secondary Matsui idtv, about 3 years old, which runs off the same aerial as the main tv. This also has it's own booster. I cannot now get channels 10,11,16,19,20,23,25,27,29,30,31,36,37,38,39,43,44,46,49,60,62,72and 82. However, and this is really odd, I do get Look East on it!!
Please use both sides of the paper and show your workings....... : )
