jim birkett: Indoor aerials are not suitable for Freeview reception.
I presume you have done a "first time install" as per the instructions today, as multiplex A has moved to C66 also.

Tim h: The change from 16QAM mode to 64QAM mode will count against the increase in power level from 20kW to 200kW.

fred: The area you are located in isn't very good for reception from Whitehawk Hill unless the aerial is mounted very high up.
You should probably just wait for two weeks for the much stronger signals, if you can get the PSB1 multiplex then you are more-or-less guaranteed to get them all in a fortnight.
