mark finn: Get your rooftop aerial fixed. Indoor aerials are unsuitable for stable Freeview reception.

Mike Dimmick: I'm not sure where the 25W came from exactly, I think it was from the original Ofcom/ONdigital database.

It is 6.3kW for analogue, and it would be very odd for the digital services to be at the same power as the analogue ones, as that doesn't happen normally.

Wolfbane is not a primary source, sorry.

Also, given that Lark Stoke is at 1.26kW AFTER switchover, it is unlikely to be 6.3 kW before.
http://www.ofcom.org.uk/s….pdf lists it as I have given it, actually at 0.03W because 0.025W won't fit in the page.
Ofcom's publication is the official primary source as far as I am concerned.

Steve: I suspect I'm probably right here too. As your box isn't listed on the current DTG :: DTT Receiver Downloads schedule, asking for a "firmware upgrade" will simply result nothing happening at all.

bett: You might have to wait until 21st September 2011, but you might want to check the Single frequency interference | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice page.

Michelle: If there is a problem with the aerial, you would expect multiplexes 2 and A to go off first.

Lowering of the signal levels will not result in total service failure initially.

Roger Hulett: My apologies, you do have a branded box. Yes, Sky News refused to be in the Freesat EPG, you have to a manual add, as per the top of the page.
