Hi, on Saturday evening I was experiencing major interference on UTV and a few other channels, by Sunday evening it was major interference or no signal on all channels. I did a full rescan and lost all channels, my tv could not pick up signal from any. Since then I have periodically manually and autoscanned and have managed to recover most of my channels except for channel 21 which includes UTV, Channel 5, ITV2 etc. Is this just a result of recent engineering and could I expect to recover these channels if I continue manually searching for channels on channel 21?
I'm in BT38 area.

I did check the 800s and nothing there, I've never recieved RTE either so I don't think that's it. When I try to manually scan channel 21 the little box says no signal and the signal meter (good, normal, bad are the increments) is completely blank. Thanks for your reply though :)

Oh dear, I didn't realise anyone was commenting, sorry guys. Just for an update, it fixed itself the next day and has been perfect since, until last night when interference started on all channels included in Channel 21. It's mostly just that Channel so I think it might just be ongoing engineering. I was lucky enough to have sky before I moved house so honestly have no idea if this interference is normal, it certainly wasn't in Glengormley a few years ago. Well thanks for the suggestions everyone but I think i'll leave it as is. Sporadic and tempermental tv is better than no tv :)
