Hi,
I live at s36 8zs which is close to Oxspring, near Penistone. This last week we have lost the itv, ch4 and ch 5 mux channels which I believe is c44 from Emely moor. All the other tv channels are full strength.
I have been in the loft and removed 15 metres of superfluous cable and the antenna is a medium gain yagi.
My next move would be to put a mast head amp next to the antenna but want to know if their is a reduction of power from ch44 mux before going to tthis expense. The tv, a sony 46 khe has had no problems receiving all channels during the last year.
Hope someone can shed some light on this problem.
Peter

Ch 44 OK on my tv at s63.Did you say your antenna is in loft if so I would try it outside. If all the rest of the channels are Ok. I dont think is good idear to get a mast head

Gerry: We also live in Hambleton, Near Selby. We have extremley poor reception, especially on ITV, Channel 4 & Channel 5. We really don't know what to do about it......

Marie: Confirm that it is tuned to the 'right' transmitter for ITV/C4/C5 etc (i.e. that to which your aerial faces) and not another one.
Bring up the signal strength screen on ITV and see which UHF/RF channel (frequency) it is tuned to. For Emley Moor it is 44.
However, you may find that it is tuned to Bilsdale on 29 (which carries Tyne Tees rather than Yorkshire) or Belmont on 25 which carries the East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire variant of Yorkshire.
If you find that the issue is that your TV is tuned to one of these two, then you should be able to prevent it from defaulting to it by having the aerial lead unplugged for the first 30% of the scan (or until it gets past scanning UHF channel 30).

Marie: If you set is tuned to Emley Moor transmitter, then are you using an amplifier and if so, try removing it or reducing its level.
Your area would appear to have clear line-of-sight at 23 miles, so the signal would be expected to be strong.

I have a strange interference problem which happens at regular intervals, usually every three hours at 12:30, 3:30, 6:30 and 9:30 etc. I suspect that this is the SIM card in the solar panel meter situated in the loft close to the aerial distribution amplifier. I know it uses an O2 SIM and wonder if an Orange SIM would have been better?

John Harrison: Although I might well be wrong but I doubt if it will, has this interference that you refer to only started recently? although if the distribution amplifier is only that and is not supplying power to a mast head amplifier then you should try a test by unplugging the distribution amplifier then removing the aerial input to it and coupling it directly onto the feed that goes to one of your TV's, then have a check what happens on that TV at the times that you know that the problem occurs.
The reason for suggesting this is that the test will indicate if the problem is with the aerial or the distribution amp.

jb38 thanks for your reply. The aerial is a relatively new 18 element Yagi group B model through a group B filter feeding the distribution amp with CT100 cable. Also connected to the amp is a 3 element DAB yagi facing the Waltham TX. Have tried connecting the main TV directly to the aerial feed and this does not help. On the TV, the signal remains at 100% but the quality drops to around 20%

John Harrison: If the problem still occurred when the aerial was fed directly into your TV then I cant really see that much you can do as the source of the interference "might" well connected to the circuitry associated with your solar panels, and especially so "if" the inverter is also located in the loft space.
As things are, the only option I see is for you to make a couple of local enquiries for the purpose of determining whether or not the problem is confined solely to your own household, because if it is then I cant see the situation being improved any except by moving the aerial to another position.
However there is one simple little test that you could make though, that being to take a small portable radio of the type that has a LW band up into the loft and tune it to a dead spot either side of Radio 4 LW 198Khz, as you only want a background noise and not a programme, then turn the volume up slightly before the times that you know the problem occurs and monitor the output of the radio, because if the problem is connected to the solar panel installation this will likely result in you hearing a loud noise through the radio, LW being great for detecting sources of interference.
By the way a radio with MW can also be used if tuned "off" a programme, its just that LW is better for this sort of test. The other point being to position the radio near to the solar panel equipment.

Cheers jb38, will give that a try at the weekend when I have more time.
