Hi,

I've had a look at the number of times the has undergone works over the past year. It seems to be significant. What are they for? It does not appear to be improvements as nothing changes. Is this amount of engineering normal or do we have a naff transmitter?

On the subject of radio. I have checked on postcode G837AA for Dab and have been told there is nothing in my area. However my son arrived last week in his new car that had a Dab radio. He could receive loads of DAB radio on this radio. Whats going on?

Up until the past 5 days, my has been very good. Now, however, I only have half of the chanels, previously had. What I have got is confusing e.g. I have BBC2HD but not the normal BBC2 Chanel. I have ITV3+1 but not ITV3 HD or ITV3 normal. There are many inconsitencies. It is most anoying to see so many screens / chanels which tell me to "check cables / connections" etc. I have another TV which receives and this is perfect. From what I can tell, the , cables and conections are all OK. I have tried re-tuning but get a message "need to search for signal", I press ok and after 30 minutes, nothing happens so I "stop". Can you please advise what is happening.
Regards

Dave Purnell:

Are any neighbours or nearby friends having anything similar? Apart from the possibility of the or LNB having moved slightly - how do levels on the you get compare with what was normal before the problem? The other possibilities are the LNB or has gone faulty. Can you borrow or try another receiver to check?
