Without your postcode it's impossible to even start with any advice. You could be tuned to the wrong transmitter, you may have an aerial or cable problem. Don't know if you have an aerial amplifier, how many sockets does it feed? Is the problems the same on all TV's or from all the sockets? etc etc.

Chris as i said above it has been happening to my neighbors too and the signal seems to be perfectly fine now i figured out the problem it was to do with other neighbors were having electrical works done and it was interfering with the signal but now im getting perfect signal from Hannington so its all fine but thanks anyway.

How do you find your symbol rate?
Hannington is my transmitter for RG2 0FW.
But I need to set it up in TvHeadEnd, and I dont know what the Symbol (baud) rate is?
Also the Delivery system?
And constellation?
Thanks :)

We are in kidlington, Oxon and for the last six months one of our tuners keeps changing to this transmitter (berks and north hants) our nearest transmitter is mendip and we have a perfect signal. Please note we have two different freeview boxes and both are doing this. We have had someone out to check the aerial and he has done some work but is baffled by this. We keep retuning until both boxes are on the nearest transmitter but at some point they both change one tuner back to this transmitter.

Nicola Baker: I was wondering about that! because using Kidlington post office as a test indicates that the Oxford transmitter is located at only about six miles away from you, and which in theory dependant on the aerial system being used, could result in your TV or boxes tuner suffering from the effects of being overloaded by an excessively strong signal and something which is capable of causing all sorts of odd problems.
Should you have any form of booster in line with your aerial then for a test try bypassing it, because once that Oxfords six muxes (inc HD) have been manually tuned in then they cannot change on their own.

Nicola Baker: Do the receivers in question have a facility to automatically re-tune, either at regular intervals or when a re-tune prompt is detected? If so, as Hannington uses lower frequencies than Oxford its muxes are found first during the scan. Consequently these muxes will be stored and the EPG slots filled. What happens when the scan reaches the Oxford frequencies depends on the design of the box. Mux BBCA, for example, will be detected as carrying a different region to BBCA from Hannington, so either BBC1 Oxford alone, or all the channels in the Oxford mux will be stored in the 800s. An identical mux, such as SDN will often either be ignored as a duplicate, or because the signal strength or quality is better than the Hannington version already stored, will then be stored instead of the Hannington version in the normal positions in the channel list. You could well find the COM muxes are quite randomly chosen from either Oxford or Hannington after each retune! Some boxes offer an option to turn off the automatic re-tuning facility.

Is there a new problem with Hannington - reduced power perhaps?
We have to use this TX as we can't see Rowridge (large hill in the way): normally we get good Freview quality at about 60% indicated strength.
Today we're seeing frequent (every 10-30s) reductions in quality (50%) with major impact on sound and pixellation.
Tested with 2 different TVs and 2 PVRs.
Could be our end, hence the question.
