12 months after my last post the same problem has re-appeared: No HD channels but all SD from Hannington. Last year it was eventually put down to moving channels & after multiple manual updates eventually after an auto-update everything came back.
Clearly nothing to do with my receiver or antenna, but no admission of problems with the transmitter.
Someone must know what & why!

Nick Bayes: Unfortunately you didn't include a postcode, but I found one of your old posts - which shows your 19km from Hannington.
There are no problems with the transmitter, but your showing classic signs of too high signal strength - and engineering work seems to result in lots of this. Frankly, your previous post was a perfect example of the same thing - 100% is going to make the TV turner unhappy - 75% is perfect.

Michael Widen: If its doing it at the same time every night, then its electrical interference - check timers, etc and see this :https://ukfree.tv/fullstory.php?storyid=1107051307
Your just 12km from Hannington, but there is something big blocking the signal path about a km from you, but it would be strange for such a problem to occur only during Downton!

hi,
I have checked your location and all aerials in your road are pointing to hannington.
The reception you are receiving from there must be marginal for you to be picking up other transmitters from time to time.
Without seeing your install and knowing the spec of it and age, I would suggest for an aerial to work in your location you need a high gain aerial possibly fitted with a notch filter which will filter our transmission being received from unwanted locations such as Rowridge,
regards
Jamie.

Hi, would be really useful if there was a way to calculate the compass bearing of the transmitter from my house (to check the antenna is pointing the right direction) using the web site. I have managed to figure it out using another site to do the calculation but just thought I'd suggest it :)
Very useful site btw, managed to figure out why I was getting bad reception on a brand new sony tv on some channels, as it had picked up a low power signal from the wrong transmitter and ignored the much stronger signal from the right one!
