Me too. I am also going to leave things alone until CP DSO is complete. We seem to be on a similar bearing from Hannington, which also seems to be co-linear with Guildford, and our symptoms seem to be similar to yours. I prematurely thought it was all over but last Monday Hannington dropped out completely (all six), and yesterday both Hannington and CP PSBs were pixellating, both with painful audio interference (not good mid-Grand National...)

Great to know that it is not our system (at least not only our system to blame).
We have found that the PBS1 multiplex (basically BBC) is fine at pretty much all the time. Looking at the levels, it is no wonder that some of the others are having problems being as they are at such a lot lower signal strength.
Thanks for posting, am hoping that means it will not cost to get this working right

Ch41 has disappeared completely from Hannington - I assume this will be back later today at greater signal strength after Crystal Palace has completed DSO??

Are the HD channels available in the Hook Area? There is nothing on Channel 39
Have a roof aerial and no problems with any other channels, but no HD on two HD Ready Tvs or a PVR (RG27 Ar)

Alan: They have been available since 22 February throughout Hannington's former analogue coverage area (no aerial restrictions).
An 'HD Ready' TV isn't sufficient. See What does "Full HD Ready" actually mean? | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice . I'm aware that there are some SD Freeview boxes that have an HDMI output - all they do is upscale the content. Check for the Freeview HD logo.

just because you have an hd ready tv does not mean you will get hd channels...you have to have a freeview hd tv, or a freeview hd box

At 06-30am All the MUXs were now perfectly received with all six at Quality 10 and strength of 9-10.
Now I have to make decisions on what to watch; I'm really spoiled for choice!
Now, with my PURE digital radio I've jumped up-to-date into the 21st century... but probably for only a few years until the next technology comes on-stream!
(By the way, I've posted this via my dial-up modem, so I'm not fully up there yet!)
