M Mitchell :
As per the very top of this page, thr HD multiplex is on UHF Channel 40 (626Mhz) with a + offset. TV sets that tune by UHF channel automatically cope with the +offset If you have a device that has to tune by frequency, you may have to tune to 626.1666MHz.
The TV channel LCN (EPG) numbers for the HD channels are 101-107, 204 & 205.
SD channels 46 & 66 are also carried on this multiplex.

Have Freeview actually realised (which I doubt, they're a bit thick most times) or been made aware that the issue has re-occurred? And thanks JS.

Gordon Insley:
AFAWK there is engineering work going on. Arqiva haven't given any detail, they never do. My guess is it's related to 4G/4G+/5G.

It should br Freesat 117, or Sky 120, or Virgin 118.
You might be able to stream it on ITVX.

As you haven't given a full postcode we don't know which transmitter you might be receiving and can't check your predicted reception.
A number of transmitters are having planned engineering which MAY be affecting your reception BUT if you are getting Sky Mix LCN11 and Really on LCN17 and not having reception problems (no pixellation or no signal) with any channels, then it may be an idea to do a full MANUAL retune BUT we need to know which transmitter to advise the UHF channels.

As you have posted on the DAB transmitter page, you won't have seen the notice about Planned Engineering on the Freeview page, this could be affecting your reception.
I'm afraid it was very unwise to retune, you cannot tune to signals that aren't there, this will probably have just cleared you correct tuning.
As you have provided a bit more information about your reception in your other post, I'm going to respond over there.

The Ridge Hill transmitter has been having Planned Engineering and if you are in a weaker signal area, reduced power or use of the reserve antenna could be affecting your reception,
We need a full postcode to check your predicted reception to offer further detailed advice.
Please tell us where your aerial is located, and roughly how old it is.
From your mention of your equipment I assume that you may have an amp/splitter to feed more than one device. Do you know the make and model? Where is it located?
How are you boxes and TVs (inter)connected? Are they each fed with a seperate output from a splitter?

FYI Belmont uses 22/25/28/30/23/26 with a Local mux on 32 That's TV Humber, beamed northwards towards Grimsby, Hull, Beverley etc.

Quite clearly "Clipped" is a pretty useless bit of software. It frequently produces garbage.

Kevin Poole :
As per the post immediately before yours, the transmitter is currently having Planned Engineering so occasional interruption to some services is to be expected.
