mr taylor: STV only broadcasts a HD version of their Glasgow region, which is also broadcast on transmitters across the other STV regions. STV haven't announced any plans yet to broadcast their other regions in HD.

GeordieLad: ITV Hub in an app on your TV and has nothing to do with any transmitter. It doesn't seem to be available on any LG TVs other than those which have Freeview Play which allows you to view programs on all the main catchup services by scrolling backwards through the program guide.

JamieT: We need to know how far you are from the transmitter (please provide a postcode) in order to advise on what type of aerial would be suitable. Log periodic type aerials are generally the best in areas with strong signal but we don't know if you'll get a strong signal or not.

Jamie T: A Log36 such as the one linked below would probably be fine. You might get away with a smaller one but I would stick with something bigger if you have space for it (it needs to be mounted so that it is not pointing through any metal objects like hot water tanks or neighbouring lofts etc).

lee radford: Do you get the two QVC HD channels? Those are broadcast on COM8 along with Frontrunner. Also check that you are actually tuned to COM 8 from Waltham on UHF C37 and not the weaker signal from Sutton Coldfield on C35.

StevensOnln1: It may be worth trying a manual tune on C37 if you box supports it. If you find the manual tuning menu and select C37 then wait a few seconds most receivers will show you a signal meter with the strength and quality of the multiplex. If both seem stable, press scan/OK and it should add the channels on COM8.

The main HD channels (BBC1 HD, BBC2 HD, ITV HD, Ch4 HD, Ch5 HD & CBBC HD) are broadcast on the PSB3 multiplex at the same power as the PSB1 & PSB2 multiplexes which carry the main SD channels. COM7 & COM8 are broadcast at much lower power on most of the 30 transmitter which carry them, which will result in a weaker signal if you're further away, have obstacles between you and the transmitter and/or are using a group C/D aerial for which COM7 & COM8 are outside the frequency range the aerial is designed to receive.
