My Sony Bravia tv doesn't seem to have that option, just 'auto startup, digital set up' ect. When prompted to start automatic tuning I get 51 digital channels (not the three main ones!) and 5 very poor analogue channels,

Tony Hewitt: You need to use this process then - My Freeview box has no EPG, is blank on FIVE, ITV3, ITV4, ITV2+1, has no sound or the channel line up is wrong | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice - on your TV set.

Hi,
I'm on the Kimberley transmitter (Nottingham) and I today can still see BBC1 and BBC1 analogue. ITV and Channel 4 have gone though. Is this right or am I perhaps on a different transmitter?
My TV automatically retuned overnight and I also rescanned this morning to make sure. I don't have a Freeview HD TV but should I be able to see the HD channels in the guide even through I can't pick them up on my TV?
Cheers
Ash

Paul: If you still have analogue you won't be getting Freeview HD today.

Ash: Only Freeview HD (DVB-T2) receivers can see the HD channels, they are totally invisible to standard Freeview equipment.

Thanks Brian, looks like I may be on Sutton ColdField as that only 20 degress away from Kimberley from where I am.
I better get my ladders out at the weekend and move it round a few degrees that may explain some of the picture quality issues I have had.
Thanks again
Ash
