John Lees: The Ridge Hill transmitter provides two version of Multiplex D3+4, one for the ITV West region on C29 and one for Central on C25.
The BBC do not provide two services.
Your box will put one version of ITV1 on the 3 position and the other on 803, or something in the 800-899 range.
Different boxes will do different things, some will put the stronger signal on 3 and the weaker on 803, and other will put the one on the lowest frequency on 3 and the higher one on 803.
If you want to choose your BBC region, you will need to point your aerial at another transmitter, or use Freesat where you can watch all BBC region services - see Which BBC regions are on satellite? | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .

Derek Tweedie: I would try the three things listed on the What can I do when my Sky Digibox says 'No Signal' or 'Technical fault'? | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice page, but the box could be faulty.

Paul Rigby: When you say "the second box I have tried" was that also a Bush BTU 160 DTR?
You are predicted to get an excellent service from the Crystal Palace transmitter at your location.

Chick Douglas: Sounds like you have a power problem, rather than anything related to the first stage of digital switchover.

Shaun: The little gaps are an artefact caused by translation between the different coordinates systems used.

Colin Hersey: Yes, " After the PSB multiplexes switch at The Wrekin, the Arqiva multiplexes will remain on their pre-switchover frequencies and powers, and SDN will use a temporary frequency, for a short period before all three multiplexes adopt their final frequencies and powers during September 2011. During this transition period the commercial multiplexes will use the following frequencies: SDN ch49 and ch31 (both 2kW), Arqiva A ch57 (not 53) (1kW), Arqiva B ch53 (not 57) (1kW)."
