I have a Humax box with a dish situated on a wall facing due south. I am unable to receive ITV and related channels but BBC seems to be ok. Have been having this problem for two weeks.Do I need to retune.

Jo Jansz: If you are using a dish then you are receiving a satellite signal. There have been no recent changes to any ITV channels on satellite. Unless you mean you're using an aerial, in which case you should check for any loose or damaged cables or connections and do not retune.

We have had no (or poor quality) Freeview signal from the Findon Valley transmitter since about Saturday 20th. I am assuming this is due to engineering works? This is ongoing. No signal at all this morning and at the moment no HD channels viewable.
Thanks
