Midhurst transmitter seems to have a lot of problems. People living in the Horsham area have varying degrees of reception particularly over the past few days. Despite retuning, resetting these problems keep occurring. There are several moans about TV reception on Trafalgar neighbourhood website.

Alan Risby:
There has been engineering work at the transmitter. You should NOT retune while that is being done as you will loose the channels that were correctly tuned already.

Alan Risby: There are recent engineering notices warning of weak signal in recent days, so it looks like there may have been engineering work taking place. Retuning is the worst thing to do and will never fix a weak signal as the TV is already correctly tuned, you are just deleting all of your channels and searching for them again.
