Has anyone had problems with MUX1 (BBC 1,2,3 BBC News) last night (Monday 21st March) and tonight (Tuesday 22th March), from around 10:30pm onwards? I have exactly the same issue with a MUX1 stored at channels 800,801,802,803 (UHF channel 68), not sure where that is from. Atmospheric conditions, no other channels are effected?
