Hi,
I've been having problems with the BBC stations for the past 3 weeks or so. Blocking, freezing. It was abysmal yesterday trying to watch the tennis. Can you check to see what the issue is. The ITV, Channel 4 Channel 5 etc are fine but all the BBC ones are a real problem at times. I've done a re-install, reset etc but problem still persists. Post code is G83.
Thanks
Brian

I'm having the same problem as the last two posts, Roy & Brian i.e. blocking and picture freeze only on BBC channels. My mothers picture is the same also my next door neigbours. We are all freeview from millburn Muir, my mothers lives 8 miles from me and my next door neighbour, this has been like this for several weeks so there must be an issue with the transmitter please advise.
