Below are all of David's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.jb38: Thank you very much for taking the time to respond. Greatly appreciated. I did the test on the Panasonic on ITV (Ch22) - the signal quality was 5/6 (moving between the two) and the signal strength was 7.
Im not sure if its of any additional help (its possibly another issue altogether) but the Samsung has a Freeview HD tuner but I also cant get any of the HD channels I should be able to see without a satellite dish / cable.
Happy to try a booster if that may rectify things - would I be able to pick one up at somewhere like Maplins?
Thanks very much again

jb38: Thank you very much for your response once again. The Samsung model is UE32D6530. Thank you for the link for the booster. I will give it a try and report back on how it goes.

jb38: Thanks very much. The manual suggests that it should be capable of seeing Freeview HD. I will try the booster and report back . Thanks very much for all of your input.

Hello, Im hopingyou might be able to give some advice. Up until a couple of weeks ago I had a Sharp LCD tv receiving all freeview channels fine. Then I bought aSamsu ng LED 3D tv a couple of weeks ago and since then I have picture and sound breaking up on ITV, CH4, CH5 etc (what I now see appears to be multiplex 2). I have checked all cables, and bought heavily shielded aerial cable in case there was interference from the power cable. All other cables appear to be fine. The aerial is external and on the rooftop. My posecode is KT10 8EN I thought it might be the internal freeview tuner so I returned it today and got a new TV. Ive just plugged it in and scanned and have the same issue. Ive done the rescan / retune and it has made no difference. All other channels are received clear and fine. What is REALLY confusing me is that by swapping the tv i thought I would eliminate any tuner issues, but I have plugged another slightly older Panasonic LCD tv into the same aerial plug and the picture is fine on all channels. Are there different capabilities in terms of different internal tuners? Could you suggest and possible fix? Many thanks in advance for any help!
