Hi, thanks for the info but haven't done any retuning as I know not to when there are signal issues. Yes we are always tuned into oxford transmitter and normally have very good signal. Just getting pixelling every few minutes on the itv and ch5 channels which are all on psb2 ch44

Hi, thanks. No haven't had any postcards. Checked on that site and no postcard has been sent either.
I dont believe a retune will make any difference if my TVs are manually tuned, or will it?
Don't ever auto tune, I manually tune to the muxes on the Oxford transmitter.
When we had issues last weekend, we asked our neighbour to check their tv and they confirmed issues too. So that ruled out it being issues with our aerial. Then read about the weather issue during the week which confirmed it wasn't our equipment. Just checked ch5 and it seems fine at the moment. It's been quite temperamental though. Just brief pixelation and quick stutter in sound once every 5 mins or so.

Hi
I just manually retuned one of my TVs on channel 41 and I'm very confused as its put BBC1 South HD on channel 1 and BBC1 South SD has moved to channel 611.
Thinking there had been a change to the channels I did a retune on my other TV on channel 41 and nothing has changed. On this TV set BBC1South SD is on channel 1 and BBC1 South HD is on channel 101.
Has left me scratching my head a bit?

Thanks for the info but the TV is only 18 months old. It is a Samsung. I've been doing some reading since I posted earlier and think it might be do do with the TV not having freeview play, only freeview. Read somewhere that Samsung TVs don't have freeview play.
I just hope that in the future, if BBC SD gets retired, we won't end up with channel 1 being empty and having to go to 101 just to watch BBC

Annoyingly my TV doesn't have an option to move the channels. The edit channels screen only has the options to lock and delete a channel. Has 'rename' as an option but even that is greyed out

Unfortunately my model doesn't have an option to renumber the channels either :(

Since the freeview issues at the weekend, we are still have pixalling on PSB2 channels. Surely this should be back to normal by now. Have never had freeview issues like this before. Dunstable area
