We get our signal from Whalley nab repeater. Why is it going off line at 01.10 at night. It is affecting all the channels. I can be watching a program ok then at 1.10 it says no signal

There's no Planned Engineering listed by Freeview for this repeater, and the BBC have not reported any loss of their services.
How long has this problem been occurring?
What time do the signals return?
Have you had any changes to your equipment?
Have you had any changes to your electrical installation?
If this is occurring at 0110 exactly each night, it sounds like it's something operating on a timer that's causing interference. One of the most common things at this time of night is Off-peak heating/Economy 7 switching on the storage and other heaters. Maybe there's a bad connection or faulty thermostat etc that's casuing the problem. It may not be your own electrical equipment, it could be a near neighbour.
Can you detect any interference on any radio channels that starts and ends at the same time?
