Just tried 39 and it says The Zone will be back at 6 pm. So got that, no idea if I had it before this morning, thanks for info.
It is realy a shame Freeview system does not tell what the new thing it found is.
If you had not told me I would never know Ch5 +1 had appeared at the next new program found time.

Hi,
I hope someone can help me!
I have a Philips 8520 Freeview HD box but I have been unable to get any HD channels sinse the switchover.
I am also unable to get other channels such as film4 and yesterday on this box, although I am able to get those channels on my old non HD box using the same ariel.
Can someone explain why that might be?
I also find that the BBC chanels on the newer HD box are not good signal, they judder quite alot (although this is an intermittent problem, not all the time).
The channels on the old non HD box are all in the 800's whereas the channels on the new HD box are mostly under 100. I don't know why that is either!
I have tried factory reset and tried turning unplugging other appliences, but no joy. have I just got an expensive pile of rubbish sitting under my TV or is there something I can do to get my HD and other channels working again?
I would appreciate it if someone could explain to me in simple terms as I am affraid I don't understand alot of the language on this site.
Thank you.

Gem: I think your devices might be picking up the signal from Belmont transmitter as well. This serves Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire, although there is significant overlap in South and West Yorkshire. See this page:
Digital Region Overlap | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice
I found the manual for your model here:
xhttp://download.p4c.philips.com/files/h/hdt8520_05/hdt8520_05_dfu_eng.pdf
Page 12 talks about "Network selection". Do you get this during setup and if so, does it consist of two entries: "East Yorks & Lincolnshire" and "Yorkshire" ? If so, then you need to select "Yorkshire" which is Emley Moor (E Yorks/Lincs is Belmont).

Thanks Dave, I don't get the option to select a transmitter.
My husband said that they used to be two options (and yes one was the lincs one) but when I have returned recently it doesn't give me any option so I presume it is just picking up the one now. I'm not sure how to tell which one?

Just occured to me that we get Look North so I guess that means we are receiving from the Emley Moor Transmitter? Would that be right?

Gem: Some devices do give the option to select transmitter, but the transmitters aren't identified by their name, but by the (principal) area they serve. Hence Belmont is E Yorks/Lincs.
Belmont transmits a different edition of Look North to that from Emley.
Having read the instructions for your model, I think that you need to do another autosetup and this time select "Yorkshire" as your network (rather than East Yorkshire/Lincolnshire).

Gem: Sorry, I didn't take note of what you said above; that your husband has carried out a retune and that it didn't ask which network to go for. You asked how to find out if it's now tuned to the correct signal (Emley Moor).
The answer is probably to go to the "Signal quality" meter for some channels. On BBC One, it should say 47 for UHF Channel. For ITV1 it is 47. For HD channels it is 41. For ITV2 it is 51. For Pick TV it is 52 and for Yesterday it is 48.
