Centre of Norwich here. Aerial pointing to Talconeston.
Looks like everything okay apart from the mux running Film4/Viva/Yesterday etc.
Film4 etc. are just breakup and pops and clicks. Have done three factory resets and scans over the past three days. Downstairs neighbour is the same. This mux was fine a week ago.
So disappointing to finally get here and its still not right.
Did the Three Stooges manage this rollout?

We have all the chgannels perfectly other then the ones on mux/COM6.
They rate at 99% signal strength and zero quality. All the other muxs come in at 99% strength and 99% quality.
We had a new antenna put up 18 months ago specifically pointing to Talconeston due to the Norwich Central being useless.
The channels on COM6 were fine a week ago.

Thanks for the comments.
Have tried a 6dB attenuator to no effect. Well instead of lines/pixles of image we just get a black screen on COM6 channels.
Neighbours downstairs cant get the channels either.
Everything else is perfect. Hohum.

But why would one mux not work when all the others do and all are at a more level setup now?
Plus it was working fine a week ago?

Visited a customer the other side of the city and they cant get the Mux that broadcasts ITV/CH4/CH5 etc. All the others are fine.
Seems a lottery really.
Is anyone in Norwich getting the full channels okay?

Oh it just gets worse.
We had a TV/Sky/Aerial installer van turn up yesterday to the apartment block. I was off to work so thought they might be trying to adjust the antenna.
I get home to find notes from a couple of my retired neighbours saying they have lost their TV!
I go inside and factory reset my Freeview box and do a retune.
Oh great we now only get 40 channels detected and only about six are watchable. Signal strength was 99% and signal quality 99% for most channels. Now its 99% signal and varies between 25% quality and no quality.
Even the BBC is unwatchable with picture breakup and many channels are simply missing. Same goes for the other neighbours.
I have reported it into the folks that look after the flats. Shambles.

Just to confirm COM4/SDN appears to be the only mux we can pick up with a watchable signal.

After three days of the engineer messing around we now have all 87 or so channels working just fine.
