I have Sony Bravia with roof top wideband aerial to Brierley Hill transmitter. Up to a month or so I could receive all programmes on Mux D. Now I can only receive programmes 15/18/36/199/711. The kitchen TV with loft aerial receives all Mux D programmes.
I have done a re-tune, a new installation and manually installed C62 all to no avail. Have you any ideas.
My postcode is DY8 2LB.
