Teresa Warn: Redruth is currently listed on the engineering notice board as being "liable to interruption" and which may also affect its Alverton relay, the other main station transmitter involved being Caradon Hill.

Teresa Warn: the last month I am getting pixerling on the channels during the day it does settle down in the evening. I am viewing from bluebell hill. It all started when I up dated my free view on the tv. Can anybody help. I have new digital aerial.

Pete: Your only 8km from Bluebell Hill (which seemingly is not your best transmitter according to Digital Uk...) - so check your signal strength - if its 100% or close then its probably too high.

MikeB: I have done all the reset and retune through the menu on the tv also taken plug and aerial out in case build up of static. I did not have any problem before I up dated it. Can I use the same aerial if I point it towards Essex which says is the better choice. The aerial is on the roof, I was wondering if 4g has got anything to do with this problem

Pete : I think your going to need the reception gurus on this one - your reception looks patchy for a main transmitter, but not bad for a light one, such as Rouncefall or Burnham.
Could you look to see your signal strength/quality, and which channel your TV is on (say 23, 44, etc). And which way your aerial is facing.

MikeB: my signal strength is 10. Quality 3. Ch 46
Frequency 67400 MHZ. Bit error 1-74 to 3.19 E-03
Aerial is pointing towards bluebell hill.
Can you us the same aerial for different receivers.

Pete : It sounds like Bluebell Hill, and if your strength is ten, then it could be that your signal is too strong - see here: Freeview signals: too much of a good thing is bad for you | Digital switchover | ukfree.tv - 11 years of independent, free digital TV advice

Suddenly our aerial signal simply disappeared around 21:30 last night (21st October) We are in BH1 (Bournemouth) and I believe our main transmitter is on Isle Of Wight.
We can receive no channels whatsoever and signal strength is reported as 0%
Checked all cabling/connections etc. To no avail. Does anyone have any information or advice?

Can anybody tell me how the Sandy Heath transmitter work is effecting them? . . . from about 9pm (21 Oct) we have lost 75% of Freeview channels, is this the same for everybody?
