Barry: We need to know which transmitter you're using in order to offer advice (pleas provide a full postcode so that we can see your coverage prediction).

Martin R: You'll need to get in touch with your Housing Association as the aerial system may need adjusting (communal aerials systems often have filters to block signals from unwanted transmitters which will need to be changes following yesterdays frequency changes) or the aerial may potentially need replacing if it isn't a wideband type.

Michael: The London local mux is now broadcast on UHF channel 35 from both Crystal Palace and Croydon.

Bill Adams: As per other comments, if you can't restore the missing channels by manual tuning then you most likely have a Group A aerial which is not designed to receive the new frequencies used by the COM7 & COM8 multiplexes. If you don't have satellite or cable you may be able to get a free replacement aerial by contacting the Freeview Advice Line (see link below).

Peter: Please provide a full postcode so that we can see your predicted coverage, as you may have picked up a weaker signal from another transmitter or you may need a new aerial if you existing aerial isn't a wideband type.

Charles Herwin: What type of aerial do you have? If it's a Group B rather than wideband then it may be less effective at receiving UHF channels 55 & 56. Reception is predicted to be good for all Sutton Coldfield multiplexes at your postcode according to the Digital UK checker.

GARRY SMITH: Chances are you probably have a Group C/D aerial which is not suited for the lower frequencies now being used for some multiplexes at Midhurst. If you don't have satellite or cable you should be eligible for a free replacement wideband aerial which can be arranged by contacting the Freeview Advice Line (see link below).

Gordon Ingram: The Midhurst transmitter underwent some frequency changes yesterday morning, with the COM4 & COM6 multiplexes now being broadcast on lower frequencies which may be outside the frequency range your existing aerial is designed to receive if it isn't a wideband type. If you don't have satellite or cable you should be eligible for a free replacement wideband aerial which can be arranged by contacting the Freeview Advice Line (see link below).
