What exactly is happening on 18th April 2012? All I can find is "technical changes". Does it really just mean that channels 30, 33 and 37 will change frequencies and signal strength increase to the same as that currently for 24 and 27, instead of the abysmally low level they are at the moment?

My Panasonic set and recorder both retuned perfectly first time, but my Samsung will not pick up 30, 33 and 37 in spite of several retunes and factory condition reset. From what I've read on here, I'm not the only person having problems with a Samsung set. If the strength of these three channels is to be increased, hopefully that will sort the problem out.

KMJ, Thanks for that. Why hasn't that been explained elsewhere? Some of us aren't technically minded, but can easily retune a TV set - so simple an explanation.

I'd go for Freesat, except I want 'Dave' and 'Yesterday' and they're on two of the missing channels!!

Thanks again - we'll see what happens on the 18th.
