Hi I do not know but I presume I cannot get dab radio from Oldmeldrum. I do not own a dab radio yet and will only buy one when I know I will get reception!!

Bill Morrison: The six year old one would certainly only have a Freeview tuner. If you can tell us the make and model of the newer TV, then its easy to see if it has an HD tuner.

Although pretty much everything I've seen 37" plus for the past two years has an HD tuner as standard, there are some 32" and a fair number of 26" and below which still just have a Freeview tuner. And of course it could been an older model which you just happened to buy recently.

If you have a modern PVR, then that should have an HD turner in it, so you could get HD on that.

Hi Dave, thanks so much for your response. I have checked the TV which is tuned to Bilsdale with full signal strength and quality, but after the scan on the DVD free view+ box (unplugging after 46) I now get the message channel unavailable. Earlier the box tuning to PP was giving those sets (5usa itv3) channel TV guide but no signal.

Is there anything else I am missing? Of course I will look to investigate aerial upgrades but that will take me some time, and probably money I expect. It is frustrating as I had no problems a few days ago. Thanks in advance, I appreciate your help.

yaz: The fact that you are receiving the COM channels from Bilsdale on the TV tends to suggest that the aerial is not an issue, so I would of course suggest that it's not necessary.

I'm not sure what else to suggest. Perhaps one of the professionals will be along in bit with some suggestions.

Hi Dave, I have just got back from work and saw your post. I did a add new channels scan just now and the missing channel set itv3, etc all appeared! Last night I was unplugging, scanning, etc till about 11pm to no avail. Thanks so much for your support. Would you advise investing in a masthead amplifier (think that's what it's called) as I am splitting the aerial signal between the TV and DVD free view+ box?

yaz: If I am right in understanding that the aerial lead coming into your room has an unpowered splitter on the end, with one output connecting to the TV and the other to the box, then connect the aerial lead directly to the input of the box and connect the output of the box to the input of the TV. That is, daisy-chain the box.
