The TV is a Toshiba 23RL933B. The manual tune indicates that the signal strength on C22 is about midway along the bar - about the same as the other non-HD channels, which we receive well, but the 'quality' indication is at the left hand end i.e. very poor. I must admit that I am not surprised - people nearer the bottom of our road, on the edge of the hill shadow, have installed expensive high gain aerials pointing to the Huntshaw transmitter, presumably so that they can get the full range of services.
Is there anything in the TV set up that I need to change? The internal tuner is claimed to be capable of receiving Freeview HD.
Thanks for your response.

Many thanks for this information - you are right! The detailed spec includes this:
DVB-T2 Broadcast systems (RL95 series only)
The RL95, of course, is the larger screen size. I bought the TV through Amazon, and, as it also seems to have trouble maintaining a secure connection to our wireless network, I shall look at returning it for a refund.
Thanks again for your help.

We live in West Yelland (77 Lagoon View, EX31 3LE), and currently are on the Westward Ho! transmitter via a roof mounted aerial. We have just bought a new HD TV, but cannot find the Freeview HD mux on frequency group C22, although this page seems to indicated that the transmitter is broadcasting it. In the shadow of the hill, we cannot pick up the Huntshaw Cross transmitter at all. Why can we not see them from the Westard Ho! transmitter, and are there any other options for pickin up the HD channels?
