Robert Driscoll: The BBC haven't announced any dates for any regional news programs to begin broadcasting in HD yet. Although they have previously suggested that they could start rolling out HD regions in England this year, but no further details have been announced yet.

Phil: Sky 1 and Sky Arts are subscription channels and can only be received by subscribing to Sky, Virgin, NowTV, BT TV, etc. There is little point buying a Sky+HD box without a Sky subscription as you won't be able to use any of the recording or on demand functions as Sky require an active subscription to enable those features. If you don't wish to subscribe to Sky, you'd be better off with a Freesat box such as one of the ones listed at the link below (all will work with any existing dish and cabling previously used for Sky).

Get Freesat - buy a Freesat box or Freesat HDTV online

Full technical details of Freeview

Chris: ITV Anglia (East) HD is currently only available on Sky and Freesat. All the ITV regions will be available in HD on Freeview eventually but not until the PSB3 multiplex (operated by the BBC and carries BBC1 HD, BBC2 HD, ITV HD, Ch4 HD, Ch5 HD & CBBC HD) is split into more regions, which the BBC have previously said will start to happen this year. Until then, transmitters in the Anglia region carry a South England version of PSB3 which includes ITV Meridian HD.

Mark Wheeler: FM radio uses a different range of frequencies to Freeview (FM uses VHF Band II whilst Freeview uses UHF) so your Freeview aerial won't be suitable for FM reception.

Jan: Please provide a postcode so we can see which transmitter you're using and where you are in relation to it.

Dennis Mills: If there are no reported problems after a couple of days then the problem is most likely at your end. Have you checked all the cables and connections behind the TV to look for anything loose or damaged?
