Hello All,

I am currently having problems receiving CH57 Movies for Men etc. on both our main TV receivers (A Samsung LE26D450 & Technika 16-850) Both TV's have individual roof top external aerials which are less than two months old. However, here is the wierd thing ! I am able to pick up CH57 using with no problem whatsoever using a Grundig GUD1500XI Freeview box connected to my old analogue Sharp TV.

I have done the usual retune on both the sets,
but still not able to get CH57, although it is shown on the EPG.


Any Ideas ??????????


Thanks

Paul,

Hello Dave,

Only had the Samsung for two weeks, but as regard the Technika, yes last month prior to the reduction in pwr for the ch 57 multiplex.

I'm wondering if there is a deficiency within the tuners on both the Samsung and Technika ?

Because I still can't understand why I am able to pick it up on the Grundig digi box using an external aerial.


Regards

Paul

Dave,
thanks for the reply,

There was some mention earlier this month on this forum that the power had either been reduced or there had been a change in the multiplex?

I connected the Grundig freeview box to one of the existing external aerials,as an experiment to see if I could pull in CH57.

I normally have it upstairs connected to an indoor aerial, where reception of CH57 is not possible.
