Debbie Aliaga: Is this a change, or have you only just tried using Freeview?
The Bury St Edmunds transmitter does not yet transmit digital signals. It will start doing so in November. However, Digital UK shows that it won't be your best option - in fact it will be very poor.
Your best option after switchover is the main transmitter at Tacolneston, and is also your best option now.
If you're already using Tacolneston, I'd look for a break in the cable, a damaged aerial, or a major mis-alignment.

Can you please explain why I cannot receive channels 12 15 & 24 . A friend also has the same problem who lives approx 2miles away .We live in bury st Edmunds Suffolk.

Peter: The answer depends on which transmitter you are using.
If you and your friend have your aerials directed to the Bury St Edmunds transmitter, then it doesn't carry these channels. It only carries the Public Service channels which are BBC, ITV1, ITV1+1, ITV2, Channel 4, Channel 4+1, E4, More 4, Channel 5 and the four HD services.
If you provide your location, preferably in the form of post code or nearby post code (e.g. a shop), then likelihood of reception can be checked upon.

I live in IP33 Bury St Edmunds.
I have not had any problems with reception on Freeview until the last two weeks or so.
I have retuned my TV today because the reception has been poor on Dave channel 12 and Really channel17.
ITV is not brilliant either.
Does anybody know why this could be?

Paul Taylor : Please provide a full postcode so we can see which transmitter you're using and where you are in relation to it (the Bury St Edmonds lite relay does not broadcast Dave or Really etc). Retuning will never fix a weak signal as your TV was already correctly tuned and can easily make things worse as the retune process first deletes all of your channels then searches for them again, so if the signal is too weak retuning will cause channels to be deleted completely.
