I live in IP33 Bury St Edmunds.
I have not had any problems with reception on Freeview until the last two weeks or so.
I have retuned my TV today because the reception has been poor on Dave channel 12 and Really channel17.
ITV is not brilliant either.
Does anybody know why this could be?

Paul Taylor : Please provide a full postcode so we can see which transmitter you're using and where you are in relation to it (the Bury St Edmonds lite relay does not broadcast Dave or Really etc). Retuning will never fix a weak signal as your TV was already correctly tuned and can easily make things worse as the retune process first deletes all of your channels then searches for them again, so if the signal is too weak retuning will cause channels to be deleted completely.
