John Austin: Talking Pictures is broadcast on the COM7 HD multiplex which (along with COM8) is a temporary service, broadcast from 30 main transmitters which cover around 70% of UK households. It is due to be closed sometime between mid 2020 and 2022 and will not have its coverage expanded to any additional transmitters. You could try contacting the channel and ask if they have any plans to cover to another multiplex with greater coverage, however none of the channels on COM7 or COM8 have announced any such plans.

My postcode is EX15 1EJ and we have had no signal or very bad since last night and after speaking to others in Cullompton quite a few people are having the same problem. Is there a known fault on our transmitter?

Emma Gover: This is very likely caused by the high atmospheric pressure affecting various parts of the country, causing lift conditions which allow signals from distant transmitters which cannot normally be received to interfere with the signals from the transmitter you normally use. Do not attempt to retune as this will delete all of your channels which are already correctly tuned. As this is an entirely natural phenomenon, all you can do is wait for the atmospheric conditions to return to normal.
