I cannot tune the channels on Hannington C32. When I try a manual C32 scan, it shows Signal Strenth 66% but quality 0%. No channels are found.
C39 also has 66% strength, but 100% quality/.
So what's going on with C32?
If you want to concentrate on a single channel, it's BBC Four HD that I miss most.
Incidentally, this affects both my Panasonic TX-L24C5B and my SONY KDL-40HX803 (on different antennas)

Steve Swift: Re: C32, as this transmitter is not due to go into service until around March next year then you are presently viewing a test transmission, therefore continuity of reception cannot be guaranteed as the signal could vanish at any time dependant on the nature of the engineering work being carried out.

Thanks, jb38
I'd looked all over for clues as to the problem. Just didn't see that "from March 2014"...

Steve Swift: No problem! as its an easy mistake to make, and which I dare say others who can also receive it will as well

Living at RG63AR I'm receiving good quality signal from Hannington, but BBC1 & BBC2 HD has no red button text/data info availability.
Is this me or current transmission/transmitter capability, the only reason I ask is because it's available on my Freesat BBC 1 & 2 National HD stations.

As of today Jan 23rd have no signal on my Freeview TV. Despite trouble-shooting and re-tuning several times the signal is still 0%. Is this a transmitter (Hannington) problem or could there be some other reason? I would appreciate your help.
My address is Mortimer Cottage, Shurlock Row RG10 0PR Tel: 01189343340
Many thanks
