Jamie .. The aerial is only weeks old and was installed when we bought the new DVB TV set at the end of Feb this year. It was fine on analogue right up until switchover/off but often lost reception on digital. After full switchover the rigger came and changed polarity to vertical and digital became better on some of the channels but occasionally stuttered on ones such as Pick, Dave, Sky News and some others.
BBC 1,2,3,4 etc was fine until yesterday until all went off and again this evening with the whole lot going off at 21:00
The lead is direct from the aerial to the back of the set and is the same age as the new group A (red ended) aerial.
I called the aerial rigger this morning and left a message but as he has not bothered to reply I can only assume he does not want to sort anything out that is sortable.
If this is DVB than this is one viewer who will flatly refuse to pay his licence next year and it will be great to have my say in court ...GRRRRR!!!

Post code PO20 0ER and its not just my set, but talking to neighbours either side and the four immediately behind us, we are all suffering loss and at the same time for the same duration.

Having seen your message Mort, I checked all of mux that serves 19 and all of that section has gone for me too. I did a full retune and the TV could not find any of them. Summat must have gone wrong at the transmitter!

I'm working from a HP aerial and it was new just a year ago. Everything has been fine until yesterday.

CORRECTION>.> strike yetsreday and replace with Friday. That mux went missing Friday.

Another full retune this afternoon and that 19 and the rest of mux C28 (530.0MHz) is still entirely missing.
My TV licience is due 28/2/14 and this is one viewer who will not be paying and I'll have my time in court to explain why.
A new aerial and lead with a new TV only a year ago so we should expect better than this p-poor service or rather lack of it!!

That posted before I had finished.
I was also going to ask if you had considered 4G phone mast conflict?

I lost all Freeview channels last night towards 23:00hrs but they are back this morning. I have a new aerial vertically aligned at Rowirdge. Did the transmitter fail??
We had excellent analogue reception in Selsey before we opted for a Freeview DVB TV set and the new aerial, but have experienced digital reception problems ever since.
If this is progress they can keep it!! We pay our licence fee in advance and expect good reception every day.
