Robert: I'm sorry, your comment deems a bit disconnected, I can't quite follow what you what you are referring to as "country wide, problems were identified before now" so I can't understand what you are being blamed for.
If you don't retune on the 14th, then you will have no BBC One, BBC Two, BBC three, CBBC, BBC News or interactive services to watch. BBC FOUR, CBeebies and BBC radio will continue.

Janette: I'm suspicious about your "aerial (new last year ready for switchover)" statement.
Your *ONLY* transmitter that you can use is Stanton Moor, and you did not need anything other than a standard aerial as you have a high power signal from it.
It might be that someone has sold you a booster, masthead amplifier or similar when you got your "new aerial".
If they did, you now need to remove it from your system as this would cause a signal overload and stop your equipment from working.
If you can't find such a device to disconnect, you might have to fit an attenuator - they cost about five pounds.

Steve P: The map zooming in and out is part of the interface, the overlays I have to do myself, mainly because the maps are in a different co-ordinates system to the underlying database - see Convert between Latitude/Longitude & OS National Grid Reference points .

D Gough: The signal levels have not changed, with the exception of multiplex 1 being turned off and BBCA starting up.
On Wednesday 21st September 2011 the existing four analogue and six digital services are discontinued and a few hours later the final five digital services will start at full power.

mike Roberts : Look at the top of the page, both the new BBCA multiplex and Multiplex B broadcasts are listed for the two weeks of switchover.

l.dawe : I'm not sure what you mean by "teletext" in this instance. The teletext services closed at switchover, do you mean the digital text services, or do you mean the services provided by Teletext Ltd, such as Teletext Holidays?
