Hi, we live in letterkenny and used to get the channels on mux-A i.e five usa and fiver. they have dissapeared in the past few months. we still get all other channels fine. but none from mux-a. im wondering what could cause this, or have the channels been removed from the limavadey transmitter?

Ciara the reason why you've lost Limavady Mux-A is because the Letterkenny Saorview DTT relay is transmitting on 53 V. You'll get the Irish DTT channels but no Limavady Mux-A.
