Is it just me, or is it that the Mendip Transmitter seems to be the only main transmitter in the country to have all these problems? I regularly look at other transmitter locations on this site and am yet to see another transmitter post DSO to have all these problems!

Thanks for that Brian. I appreciate as well that Mendip is like it is until after our neighbouring regions have switched but sorry I am a COMPLETE amateur at all this but I am keen to learn, I appreciate as well the dates that the final channels will be adopted but it doesn't seem to tie in with either the Meridian or Central regions changing?

Also one more question please!?

My Aerial is facing towards Mendip and I did a re-tune the other day and am getting Fiver, FiveUS, ITV3, E4 etc from a UHF C51.

Anyone know which transmitter this is coming from?

Thanks in advance all

brian: Does this mean then that the change of channels will fall in line with Central region switching then?

KMJ: Thanks that does make sense now!

I to have now lost all channels on C67. Like the other Gareth, I have lost everything. I don't want Sky Sports but I know it does make things better for those who do want Sky sports. Before the retune I had a full complement of the old C59 about 50% strength.

I have just finished a 2nd retune and I am getting a stronger signal for these channels from Wenvoe on the back of my aerial which is pointing the wrong direction!

Roll on the signal strength boost next year!!!

OK Brian I will give it a go. Thanks Brian! I will let you know!

Also thanks so much for this site, as without it I feel I would be getting nowhere at all with my freeview problems.

What retune is required on the 28th then and why do we need to re-tune?

What's happening then to Mendip over the next week? Anyone know? Or just routine maintenance?

Kind regards
