You are just 16km from the Midhurst transmitter so you may have too much signal. Ideally you want between 60% and 85% strengths on all the multiplexes. Your TV set will have a feature for manual tuning and that will show the strengths but DO NOT RETUNE. Check in your User Manual if you are not sure how to use that feature. Do that check at a ctime when the channels are being lost.
Incidentally, the format you entered your post code in is incorrect so the system failed to resolve it, you should normally use the format GU31 4PZ. If you pout that into the Digital UK Coverage Checker at Digital UK - Coverage checker it will tell you all the channel numbers used by Midhurst currently and any planned changes in the future. Simply scroll down to find the listing for Midhurst.
