Hi. Thanks for the reply. NR19 (Dereham) doesn't appear to be within transmission range, yet both a Samsung and a Toshiba just outside town can pick up the channel perfectly. However, two Panasonics on the same street (albeit 200yds apart) cannot. Another TV (Sony) about 3 miles west of Dereham CAN pick it up and one TV (another Panny) in Dereham cannot get it.
This is the only reason why I made an assumption that it could be Panny Tv's with issues. Deadite66 seems to have settled that one though! Mind you, they are within the catchment area. Maybe Panny's aren't very good at probing for weak transmissions. I don't know.
I'll just have to deliver the bad news - no 'Mustard' for the masses of Dereham! LOL!

Any ideas peeps?
I've been to several different TV's in the Dereham area recently to update/tune in the new "Mustard" channel. Samsung, Sony, Toshiba have all found it, no problem - but three Panasonics (two in the same street!) just don't pick it up. Full 'auto' retune or manual search. Can't be aerial/reception related as one house with an ancient aerial (Samsung TV) found it easy-peasy. Whereas one with a relatively brand new wideband aerial (Panny TV) just doesn't. Could it be that Panasonic tuners aren't capable of finding this LNR mux/band???
Thanks for any assistance/advice offered.
