Hello
We received our new Panasonic TV on 19th July- tuned it in as directed - got all freeview channels including HD channels. On 26th - all HD channels were no longer available. Is there a problem with the transmitter? Our post code is DA16 1HQ
Thanks
Maggie

Maggie Pywell: The HD service from Crystal Palace was indeed off the air for two short periods on the date you mention, and so "if" by any chance you carried out a re-scan (many do!) after they went off you will require to carry out another re-scan to regain them, as no fault indications are shown for today, as yet anyway!
