I have now lost all signal can you tell me what the problem might be?
Brian Butterworth published on UK Free TV The problem could be one of:
- the aerial has been moved or damaged;
- the cables or connectors that connect the digibox to the aerial are damaged;
- the digibox has broken.
If you have a "spare" digibox you use this to test the aerial connection. Can you still watch analogue TV OK?

George Steele:
As previously stated elsewhere, Aberfoyle is poorly served by any Freeview transmitter. The coverage around Aberfot=yle from the Craigkelly transmitter is very patchy, see the map at https://ukfree.tv/transmi…lly.
That being the case, your reception from either Craigkelly or Darvel will be unreliable at best.
Your best option is Freesat providing you can have a dish of adequate size, at least 75cm (anything smaller would be very unreliable in rain or snow), mounted so as to have a clear view towards the satellite orbital position. Freesat carries almost the same range of channels as Freeview and it also a non-subscription service but a TV Licence is still required.

Apropos prev comment. I have just discovered that the aerial is subject to mains input and a trip switch had operated. All OK now.

manda: The sky dish and the freeview box wont work together, and the dish has to be pointed at a point somewhere above the Congo. In short, your dish has nothing to do with your freeview signal.
Best guess? The aerial you have (which should be pointing to Crystal Palace, since its very powerful) isn't working properly, and you need to get it checked.
