simon offord: You shouldn't need a booster if you are using the Reigate transmitter, I would check your cables and connectors are in good order.

Nick: There is no-one to complain to.
Rabbit and Gay Rabbit are low bandwidth services provided by Teletext Ltd, which as the national teletext operator is allocated 5% of multiplex by the Broadcasting Act. If they were removed, there would be no space for any more TV channels.
The commercial operators do not wish to transmit from the relay transmitters, Ofcom has no powers to force them to do so. This transmitter covers a maximum of only 4,800 homes, they do not regard it as profitable to transmit from masts that cover less than 10,000 homes.

The different BBC regions are on different transponder with different polarity settings, you may have a problem with the LNB not setting the correct polarity.
