Briantist,
We are using a Humax HDR-Fox T2 500Gb Freeview+ HD Recorder.
This is on all the HD channels

John: Are you connecting the box to the TV using HDMI and then using the TV speakers, or are you using the SPDIF output to connect to an external amplifier?

Befor Christmas I purchased a Panasonic HD TV with inbuilt HD Freeview tuner. I realigned my aerial on Emley Moor to get the HD channels with excellent results. However the digital signal over the the last couple of weeks has deteriorated to the point that I was down to a total of 14 channels. Analogue still solid. Today, I gave up on Emley, realigned my aerial on Tapton and every thing is hunky dory again, except the HD of course.
Cheers all, Roger
By the way the audio on the HD channels has always been considerably lower than the same transmission on SD.

I am in Selby and use Emley Moor for Freeview HD and normally get a good signal. This evening reception of all HD has been intermittent. Has there been a transmitter problem?

Thanks Briantist. I've noticed that there is a post regarding engineering works at Emley Moor over the next few days. Maybe that's what's causing the problems on Freeview HD.
