My reply above (4:17pm)was addressed to D Ferguson (24th July 08:50), not to you. In your case it's certainly NOT the TV. To have two TV sets fail in the same way at the same time is very, very improbable. Also, at your location, I wouldn't suggest any transmitter other than Hannington.
I thought from your second post (25th July 09:19)that the problem had resolved itself? Are you still losing reception on all channels?

my
aerial is on the roof, we have always received a good signal now we are receiving good sometimes average and sometimes not at all!
in view of our location should we perhaps think about I.O.W ?
or should I be still receiving good signals from basingstoke but you have problems?

Paul.Hythe,SO45 6JG.First of all is it the radio or TV signals that is causing you the difficulties as judging by your two previous comments both were posted on the Basingstoke DAB radio transmitter page and this one on Hannington main TV transmitter page.
If it is TV related is your aerial polarised horizontally facing Hannington,or polarised vertically facing Salisbury major relay.Also what is the colour tip or your aerial if you can identify this as such,as if you decide to realign the aerial to Rowridge you will need to either change your aerial as Rowridge main transmitter is an all group A mast (red tipped group A aerials preferably will need to be used here),or consider diplexing your aerial (using a second antenna) with your current one facing either Hannington or Salisbury with a second antenna pointing to Rowridge.

Any thoughts on having problems with just one multiplex (coms 6 ARQ b), all others come through perfectly.
We dont have a freeview hd box, but all other multiplexes come through perfectly without any problem.
Coms 6 is totally variable. Sometimes the signal comes through perfectly, sometimes you get no signal at all.
Has anyone got any thoughts about how 1 multiplex can be so variable without affecting any others (coms 5 is sent out at the same power, according to the information at the top of the page, could the relay be broadcasting this multiplex at less power than the others?).
I'm just trying to work out if this multiplex is bad for a reason or if it is a problem in my house. I havent been able to ask people around me as they all pay for their tv (it was only at switch over that you were able to get any freeview in our vicinity at all).
I just cant understand why all the other commercial multiplexes broadcasting at the same strength, come through perfectly but this one is most of the time unwatchable (though occasionally it is fine).

Dave Lindsay.Tim's postcode is GU52 6ES,in Fleet,Hampshire.
Tim.I would look up single frequency interference as a likely culprit for your ongoing problem with the ArqB multiplex from Hannington on frequency 47.

Ive had a look. I do have a digital recorder, but turning this on or off makes no difference (it does contain a digital tuner so it would be a bit odd if it was the problem). My video player is not ever on unless its in use. It also seems to make no difference whether the freesat box is on or off. As such while it still could well be interference, I am not sure what with
Interestingly, currently it is not picking the multiplex up at all at the moment(the channels just disappeared from the lineup last time I did a scan). I don't know why it is doing it, would be nice to have the channels, but it appears for some unexplained reason it is unavailable where I live.
Anyway thanks for your help

Tim:
Like Mark Fletcher, I'd suspect single channel interference. Some further thoughts/questions which might shed some light...
Does your digital recorder also exhibit the same problem (fine on all channels except those from ArqB - C47)?
Have you tried turning off every other electrical appliance in your house including portable/mobile phones (but not the TV !) to see if the problem disappears?
Google's satellite picture of your postcode suggests that many of your neighbours are also using Freeview from Hannington with similar aerials, do they have the same problem?
What sort of signal strength/quality are you getting on each of the other multiplexes, and on C47 when it's working OK?

Sorry yes I haven't had any further problems so it must have been atmospherics.
One thing though the digital radio (on its own integral aerial) was working at the time that I lost the tv transmission.
