Andrew Land: 75 % is supposed to be perfect - but if your getting a good picture with 100% Quality, then thats fine.

If you put your postcode into this site, it will bring up a load of links, which should tell you what channels and signal strength you should get. If they make sense, then dont worry about it.

Andrew Lands:

Further to that said by MikeB, it is typically acceptable to have a signal strength of between 50% and 85% for SD services and between 60% and 85% for HD services to get good reception. If the signal strengfth were lower or higher than these figures then you would experience some problems with pictures breaking up or some loss of sound.

Your stated signal strength at 64% is well withing the acceptable range, so no worries on that score.

BBC4 HD and several other channels between 105 and
201 are missing from Samsung Smart TV
following retune. How do I get them back,
please? They are all in place on upstairs TV using same aerial. Thank you Sara

Anyone else lost UHF60 from whitehawk hill.

It has me puzzled.. Freeview Box finds with no issues, but TV doesn't since last week.

Putting aerial into tv directly doesn't make any difference

RJ: Try changing the aerial lead from the box to the TV - different tuners have different sensitivities, so check signal strengths that its not the system and the TV has gone first.

But if the box is fine, then so should the TV, unless whatever is connecting the two together has a problem, in which, check the fly lead...

Nothing on my setup has changed.. Channels were there last week and FREEVIEW say no works has taken place on this transmitter this month, so no reason why no signal on TV but full signal on box..

Can only guess TV is fubared!

I am able to receive the majority of freeview channels in AB53 4EY but cannot pick up STV 2. Is this channel available in this area ?
