Nick: I think your best option is to wait 10 days for the second stage of the DSO when all signals should improve significantly.

The commercial multiplexes will increase power on 22nd February. However, they will continue to be radiated using the pre-switchover antenna array which is not omni-directional (it throws out less signal in the direction of Guildford).

I should add that the situation with the commercial multiplexes will change on 18th April and they will switch to using their final switchover antenna.

Thanks Andy, I will do. However I am confused as to how I can receive other relatively low powered muxes such as C and D but not 2 and A (which have a higher power than the forementioned muxes)!

Nick: 40, 43, & 46 are all used by Guildford analogue, which is transmitted at a much higher power. It is probably upsetting your Freeview tuner even though it may be coming off-axis to your aerial.

Nick: I suffer from the same problem and I've found that some Freeview tuners cope better than others with this. I have also found that fitting an attenuator can help in some cases. Having said all that though, I think it's probably easier to just wait 9 days and reassess the situation.
