Ritsaert: The post you replied to from 2 days ago is warning of loss of signal on some channels, so it is likely that whatever engineering work or weather conditions have triggered the warning are currently taking place. Do not attempt to retune.

I live in the East Midlands Today area. As many know (although not a word on the news about it) today 6 areas have now got regional news on 101HD. Yes we have but on my old Panasonic HW100 Freeview box which works perfectly I discovered when the change came for some reason all the HD channels not just BBC signals disappeared with the message no service. To sort it I had to tuning and choose Update Channel List and they came back. And I did not loose my programs I had set to record. Contacted a friend and they checked and they had the same problem.. If you did not know tonight any programs you had set to record on HD would be lost.

Elvin Rose: Many receivers handled the change automatically, it's mostly older TVs and boxes that would have required a manual retune. The BBC did publish an announcement yesterday, which can be found at the link below.
