Krysia : As the post above yours says, this is planned engineering work so the transmitter will be back on when the work is finished, usually by early evening. Do not attempt to retune.

Tuesday 14th October 2020 My Toshiba tv shows a message that there is NO SIGNAL through my aerial. I cannot watch any programmes that way.

I was able to make the internet connection but cannot access any channels because I cannot go via Channel 100

Please advise what is happening

Yvonne Fuller:

As you haven't given a full postcode, we can't be certain which transmitter you normally receive - the local relay at St.Anthony-in-Roseland or the main transmitter at Redruth. Which way is your aerial pointing?
If it's pointing roughly WSW (bearing 228 degrees) with the rods vertical it'll be the local relay.
If it's pointing roughly WNW (bearing 294 degrees) with the rods horizontal, it'll be Redruth. If you normally get channels like Dave, Drama, Yesterday and 4Seven etc, then it's definitely Redruth. Redruth is currently listed for Planned Engineering with "Possible weak signal" which may be sufficiently weak at your location, it becomes No signal.

You shouldn't retune if you have No signal or weak pixellating pictures as it can just clear the correct tuning and you'll need to repeat the retune when signals are back - you may have to try several times!
I'm not sure about selecting services on your Toshiba, presumably you normally try via Freeview Play at LCN100, can you not select things like iPlayer, ITV Hub directly from another menu?
