I live just north of scunthorpe and over the last three days I can't get any channels on one of my TVs. The other two are working OK.
When I run the install channels programme, no channels are detected. This happened suddenly. Before we could get most channels a part from BBC ones for a period. We have two different aerials in our house. Please can you help?

Tim : its seems your local transmitter is under going work and so you are liable to weaker signal.

My mum has recently lost her sdn multiplex on freeview (ITV 3 , 5 USA, 5* etc).Tried resetting the box and retuning but to no avail. I have freeview and live just across the road from my mum and mine is working fine,any ideas why?

Kirsty: Transmitter engineering work maybe.
The first thing not to do is retune.

Kirsty: The channels now need tuning in again because they've been untuned by virtue of the retune.
Try a manual tune of UHF channel 30 if the receiver allows.

Film4 & film4+1 chaos.
Yes I've got that message about film4 moving. Yes I've re-tuned 3 times now. Each time it all looks as it should.....then a while later the 're-tune' message comes back up again.
Any ideas?
