Brian Lowe:

It would have been helpful; if you had provided a full post code so that we could look up the expected reception conditions at your location.

I suggest that your check all your aerial cables and connection. Unplug all coaxial plugs/soclets and refit them. Corrosion/oxidation on those contact is a common cause of the problems you report.

All:

There is a major retune event on the 4th March. The transmitter will likely go off-air overnight and the multiplexes PSBs2&3 move to new UHF channels. The transmitter may be off-air for several hours and may not be back on air until late morning or early afternoon.
The new channels are as follows, in the order PSBs1-3; C48, C33, C36;
People will need to retune and a Group K aerial may be needed for satisfactory reception of all multiplexes.

Anyone having problems receiving the PSB multiplexes may need a new aerial. Providing they don't have Cable or Satellite, they can get help for a free replacement aerial from Freeview by ringing 0808-100-0288 (a free call, but there might be long wait times on the phone!).
