I live in london E10 and have a HD freeview TV.
However, I cannot pick up any HD channels, even though I done a manual scan.

kc: Your most likely transmitter is probably Crystal Palace and certainly not Midhurst!
If so, then wait until tomorrow when Crystal Palace switchover completes and HD services become available.

My 'Guide to Switchover' advices re-tuning on the Midhurst transmitter on 25th April . So what is going to change on Midhurst on this day. (We're Burgess Hill RH15 9XH)
| link to this comment |
Harry Butler: On that date ArqB (Yesterday etc) on C50 will go up to full final power. If you presently get Yesterday, or it is intermittant or at least given in your receiver's channel listing, then you probably won't need to retune.
If it's not listed at all, then try manually tuning to C50. If it you can't pick it up now, then manually tune on 25th (as opposed to a full retune) and this should add it.
