Thank you Dave - I manually tunes, so know I am on Crystal Palace, as I ensured to use its MUX channel numbers, I try 30, and it say Power 100% Strength 0%, if I try searching, they are ALL saying "nothing transmitting" or words to that effect.
I have a booster (it splits to 5 TVs in the house this way), however thinking that may be the contributor, I disconnected the aerial, and put it directly into the Topfield (I use that the most to be honest), and same problem. I even powered off the Topfield, retried and same problem
Does Wooburn transmit the Mux3? If so, I'll manually try *its* channel number - any ideas where I might find that?
thanks

I just found wooburn's page, Wooburn digital TV transmitter | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice and it says channel 52 for Mux3, and that tells me 69% power, 0% quality
Checking Wooburn's Mux2 channel 56, I get 70% power, 37% quality, Mux1 channel 48, I get 77% power, 86% quality.
All the other Crystal Palace Mux channel numbers are 100% power and 100% quality
thanks

Mind you, checking my postcode against ukfree.tv site, it reckons I should be getting from Guildford :)
Checked its channel 40, and 29% power 0% quality
So it definitely isn't finding that one!
Reason I tuned manually was because I was finding other transmitters, with poorer signals, and having multiple versions of each programme channel.

Dave, had a few mins spare (mrs not ready to go out) and it was as you said DVB-T2 - so that's the Humax sorted, now need to try the TV to behave :)

Hi, I hope someone can help. Since digital switchover on 18th April, I am unable to get MUX3 (or whatever it is now called...) so no HD channels at all.
I believe I'm pointing at Crystal Palace, and all the other MUX channels have 100% power and 100% quality, the MUX3 has 100% power, 0% quality.
I've tried TV, Topfield 5800, and a HUMAX that I know used to get me HD pre switchover.
Can anyone help/advise please?
thanks
Richard
