I have just done a full retune. I'm on the Hannington transmitter. However Muxes A and 2 are pretty much unwatchable as the picture jumped and skips and the 'Signal Level' bar jumps up and down. It used to do this for Mux C but thats now fine. The other muxes are fine.

I have a Hitachi HDB72 Set top box. The funny thing is Mux 2 has always been bad, but Mux A was fine before Christmas. Even changed the flylead and the aerial, even though I'm in a communal flat, is fine. Any solutions? All muxes were fine on the evening of the 8th Feb (the date of the first stage of the switchover), but now is back to the Muxes 2 and A being unwatchable.

Thanks Andy, I will do. However I am confused as to how I can receive other relatively low powered muxes such as C and D but not 2 and A (which have a higher power than the forementioned muxes)!

Thanks Andy, I will probably wait and see what happens. Do you still suffer from the same problems, and if so which tuners do you recommend?

Strange, seems only last Wednesday and this Wednesday the other muxes are watchable...
