Dave: As per the comments above, try My Freeview box has no EPG, is blank on FIVE, ITV3, ITV4, ITV2+1, has no sound or the channel line up is wrong | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice but there do seem to be reception problems for some people so you may need to wait until later in the day.

mrdtv: I'm not sure C45 is a problem there, BBCA is at 50kW which is -7dB from the analogue services at 250kW. The existing digital services are -11dB and -14dB from the analogues.

I have had an email from Arqiva:
Arqiva is aware of low signal reception of the new BBC digital TV multiplex at Hannington since switchover earlier this morning. This is being looked into urgently. Analogue BBC1 and ITV1 may also be affected, especially in fringe areas or where indoor aerials are being used. Other digital and analogue TV services should not be affected.
The engineering can sometimes take all day and hopefully everything should have settled before the end of the afternoon.
So ... do not adjust your set!

They seem to have fixed it. I'm now getting 100% for signal quality on BBC A, with 75% signal level.

Why is there no announcement from these muppets on the BBC website.
Lets have a licence fee refund for the down time.

Gnasher: yeah you would think with all the millons spent on telling people to retune, they would have SOME sort of up to date announcement system to say "hang on, we're having a few issues thus:..."
