Below are all of D. Brooks's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Just retuned my digital receiver with set top aerial after Tyne Tees area switchover.I now have good signal on BBC1,2,3,4 Pick Tv, Dave and some others but very low or no signal (unwatchable) on Itv1, Ch4,Ch5, ITV2,3,More4.
Also low signal but just watchable on Yesterday, Film4, ITV4.
Dont understand the wide variation in signal strength from the same aerial using presumably the same Bilsdale transmitter
Is this likely to get better or am I now stuck with this situation unless I can get a better indoor aerial ? Cant get access to an outside aerial due to the room location.
Appreciate any advice

Many thanks for your response. I had thought that all channels were to be on full power as of this morning so its a relief to know that I'll be in better shape in two weeks
thanks again

Just returned from 2 week holiday and now find that freeview reception via digibox in my study has gone awol and "no signal" is showing. Nothing has been moved, indoor aerial in same position etc. Tried moving aerial around and managed to get approx. 25% signal strength on some of the channels where I used to get min 50% before. I live in Poppleton near York and get signal from Tyne tees mast. Has there been any problems with this transmitter ??
Appreciate your help

I live in upper poppleton north of york and receive digital signals on my upstairs TV via a settop aerial and signals from bilsdale. BBC1 and 2 are fine but very low/intermittent signal on ITV1 Ch 4 and ch 5. This only seems to have happened in last week or so. Is there a problem ? Downstairs in study I get analog signals for Bilsdale again with settop box. When switchover happens, will the digital signals be boosted so I can use digibox ?
thanks
