M.Munn: The TV Licence pays for the BBC to make and broadcast programmes, but it does not cover your or anyone else's reception. That is your resposilbity.
Also leaving aside that it is impossible for your to have a single channel on Freeview, as the servies are provide in multiplexes, please can you see Freeview reception has changed? | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice for help.

M.Munn: Check in the 800s in the channel list for channels that work. If the problem is finding weak signals from other transmitters during the early part of the scan you need to do a factory reset to clear the channel list then do a manual tune for the frequencies in use at the transmitter that your aerial is pointing to. I noticed on one Freeview box that when signals from both Nottingham/Kimberley and Waltham were present duplicates were stored for all BBC channels except BBC1.

Thanks Briantist.
Will the HD channels return then as I cannot absorb all the information on the link. Signal strength was 100% on HD until yesterday still 100% on non HD today.
Bare with me

Same here (Wollaton) on Nottingham transmitter - lost HD channels sometime between 7-8pm last night. Still in guide and receiving EPG for them, but signal strength at 0. Tried a manual re-scan of channel 21 only. not finding any channels on it.

I noticed the HD mux from the Nottingham transmitter had gone yesterday (zero signal for all 4 channels). As in April the other mux's are unaffected.
I've reported it on the BBC website.
