Hi,

Over the last few days we have gradually lost all our channels. Initially we were just getting a "poor signal" message, we re-programmed our TV and lost most channels except the ones on multiplex ARQB. And then yesterday, even those channels weren't being picked up. Rescanned a number of time with no luck. Our postcode is SO52 9NP. Hope you can help.

Any ideas for what we can try next?

grace: Crystal Palace reports no problems, so there are two possiblities. One is that something in your system is faulty, such as a loose cable, etc.

However, I'd also check signal strength - your only 4KM from the transmitter, so it might be your signal is just too much for the TV.

This site tells me the nearest transmitter for my LA postcode is near Bristol. No wonder I am not getting a signal!

don't believe everything you read.

This site gives me the wrong transmitter for my area.

Can anyone explain why I can't get BBC Three HD/Cbeebies on Freeview from Torosay transmitter? According to the data on this site, I should be getting it - I get the other HD channels shown.

No signal at all on any BBC channels. All others perfect. Retuned, reset, restored etc. a hundred times. Sometimes some flashing coloured blocks, but mostly nothing. Radio signals also broken up. Only BBC affected. Please help if possible

Hi...

I have had no TV signal at all this afternoon. My postcode is TR18 4HR. Is there a problem with the transmitters in my area?

My TV aerial is on the roof and shows no sign of damage or movement.

Teresa Warn: Redruth is having engineering work, but they are seldom off line for very long, and even a reduced signal should be fine for most people (your only 24km from the transmitter).

Check your connections, because if your getting no signal at all, its liable to be something to do with your system.
