Postcode GU15 1ER, aerial pointed at Crystal Palace, with high gain roof aerial and booster amp, feeding 2 Sony TVs. Previously received 104 channels on Freeview. Now receive 42 channels on Muxes 1, B and C only with signal good and additionally Mux 2 on the other TV with high signal. To me this looks like a signal level issue from Xtal Palace. I've obviously done all the checks suggested. Any other thoughts?
