Below are all of Ian's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Thanks for replying Mike. That explains it. I shall get an engineer to check and replace the cable and/or junction box because I hate going on the roof.
Postcode is BL9 6NN. I think the signal is ok? We have ruled out the equipment issue because it is the same on two different TVs in the house. Yet we get ITV on HD though presumably that's on a different mulitplex?
The only thing left then is, as you say, the cable or possibly the junction box on the wall into which the two cables from the house meet. I had to push one of the connectors back into this box because it was a bit loose - I thought that would resolve the problem but probably water has got inside that, as you suggest.
I shall come back when the problem is solved!
Thanks again,
Ian

What I don't understand is why an aerial - which has performed perfectly well for years- has suddenly stopped picking up ITV, C4 and C5?
We have had bad weather recently but we have had worse without any problems.
I have been on the roof, checked all the cables and the aerial itself is rock solid, it hasn't been moved in years, the connections are all good too.
I also note a lot of other people posting this month about these channels?
Buying a new antenna doesn't explain why these channels have disappeared overnight.
Thanks for any guidance you can give.
