Hi. I am on Emley moor transmitter. Any idea why all of a sudden all bbc tv channels are low signal? Every other channel has high signals. Should they not have better signals seen as they are the ones who rob is of our tv licence?

I live about 10 miles from the Emley Moor transmitter. Signal strength has always been good, I can see the tower.
External aerial, single Samsung Freeview TV. No complicated set up.
Throughout this summer, I have experienced picture breakup on most Freeview channels over 30. Before about April, everything was fine.
I have returned to no avail. BBC1 and 2, ITV3 and ITV4 are fine.
But 5+1, Dave etc. are unviewable.

mikem004: If your that close,then too high a signal level is likely to be your problem - search for 'too much of a good thing' on the site. Whats probably happened is that you were just be below the threshhold for problems, but perhaps the power has gone up slightly.

That would mean that thousands of other people in West Yorkshire might have the same problem!
Wakefield, Huddersfield, Dewsbury, south Leeds are all near the transmitter.
I was prepared to blame the weather, personally...but it's the same problem rain, shine or cloud.

Signal strength is 86 on BBC1 (good picture)
Signal strength is 66 on Ch5+1, with large BER (breaking up, unwatchable)
Can't find any menus for signal quality.

mikem004: Possibly thousands of other people are...judging by the number of people who complain of signal breakup in similar circumstances. See here: Freeview signals: too much of a good thing is bad for you | Switchovers | ukfree.tv - 12 years of independent, free digital TV advice However, your readings are really odd - 86% is a little high (75% is perfect) but seemingly fine. 66% but breaking up? Thats odd - the lower threshold shouldn't be that high. Might be a question for JB38 or Dave Lindsay...

I suppose the value "86%" is specific to the TV receiver?
A different make of TV might report different absolute values.
