Film 4 and Yesterday are now only intermittently available here in Winchester and I see that the broadcast power for COM5 and COM6 is currently "very low". Will it ever move up into the "low" category, or possibly higher, so I can resume watching these channels as I have since Freeview started. I have a good rooftop aerial and a signal amplifier for connection to my TV which is driven by a PC with a Hauppage TV card.

Removing the booster gives me no programmes at all. Everything was OK until the digital switchover when I assumed power would be increased. If "very low" is the increased strength what was it before?

I have to use Hannington, even though I am on the fringe of reception because I have a huge obstacle (ie a big church) which wrecks signals from Rowridge.

Looks like I wait until April when according to Arqiva the power will increase on the "commercial channels"...
