Hi - I'm from Stourbridge and have recently (past few months) had lost some channels (film4, 4music, virgin 1, yesterday ... etc). Last year I got a new aerial and put it all up and it worked lovely (pointed at Brierly hill). Then not even on a re-tune, I lost the channels mentioned above - so I re-tuned my TV (built in freeview - goodmans). This didn't get any of the lost channels back. Every so often I tried with little success... I even bought a booster as some channels were low. This has increased the strength on those but I still don't have the lost channels.
I would appreciate some help on this.
If it helps, I believe I have a black stopper on the aerial front which means I have a wideband one?
Thanks
Ian
