Hi, I have an LG 37LE4500 TV and a Humax HDR Fox T2 Freeview+ PVR. Aerial is in the loft, with boosters, feeding through PVR into TV.

Baffled by what has happened since the switchover on transmitter yesterday. The PVR has retuned well, has BBC HD now (didn't before), found over 80 channels. The TV can find only 27 channels in total, no BBC channels at all - none. I have followed instructions on doing a full re-tune, repeated a dozen times. Prior to transmitter change both devices had all the same channels.

How come? How can the two devices have such different sensitivity - and only now, when, supposedly, the digital signal is 12 times stronger? None of this makes sense.

In Worcester WR4 district.

Following my previous post: I have discovered that my PVR can see channel 26 and rates it as 75% signal strength 100% quality. The TV says "no signal" for channel 26.

Eh? The two devices are on the same aerial. How can this be?

Did a factory reset on the TV but same result.

Mike Dimmick, if I wore a hat I'd take it off to you. I removed one of the two aerial boosters and the TV was now able to tune into channel 26, with no adverse effects on the PVR. Removing both boosters caused the PVR to complain of loss of signal, so I'll stick with one.

Great! Many thanks for the tip!
