Richard: It sounds like the box you installed could be putting out the signal on or near to the frequency used by Freeview.
When you remove this device from your aerial lead do the missing Freeview and analogue channels come back?
Does it have some control on it (maybe a thing you turn using a screwdriver) perhaps labelled "RF Channel Out" or similar?
Perhaps you can post the make and model number of the device in question and/or a link to the place you bought it from as it might help us guide you as to what the solution might be.

Richard, Chineham, especially the area near the A33, still has dodgy Freeview reception so it doesn't take much to push it over the edge.
The only type of box you should have used is an aerial amplifier such as the Global F140 or similar connected via the RF2 output of the Sky receiver. If you used any type of un-amplified splitter you are asking for trouble.

The last 2 days the signal is very poor/non existent for BBC1 or BBC2. I live in RG22 off the Hannington transmitter. I watch freeview through a Humax box. All other channels are fine? any ideas would be welcome.

James: I fear you must look elsewhere than to the transmitter for your problems. Here in the depths of NW Wiltshire all channels from Hannington, including BBC 1 & 2 have been coming through loud and clear last week

Shared aerial system - in block of flats.
I have just lost ALL Freeview service. 24 Nov 2011, 00:22
Reinitialising my Freeview PVR (an LG unit) letting it attempt to retune everything - TV is fine with analogue signals.
Analogue tuning seems to be fine...NO FREEVIEW MUXES AT ALL.
WHAT HAS HAPPENED? TELLY PEOPLE - JUST FIX HANNINGTON!

Alex Cockell: There is reference to BBC digital TV (BBC4 etc) being off air from 00.05 for DSO related work, so don't worry too much as it should return before 6am.

Where can we find ADVANCED transmitter engineering information. Everything is in the past - this is useless. DUK say phone BBC, BBC have a very long recorded announcements that say blah blah WILL happen on Tuesday, blah blah WILL happen on Wednesday but this is all in the past, nothing that actually WILL happen. BBC say DUK are responsible. Back to DUK and they say I have to find the 'owner' of the Hannington transmitter. Where can we get ADVANCED information - no TV last night after 00:06???

For the past few evenings after midnight I have been able to receive reception on any DVD Freeview Channels numbering over 80 channels in all. From the above information I realise the situation and will inform my immediate neighbours.
Many thanks.
