I have a digital high gain aerial with 5 top and bottom elements.
My TV is a Panasonic TH-37PX70BA with a built in freeview tuner.
I also have a PVR, Panasonic DVD DMR-EX95 again with its own freeview tuner.
On both freeview tuners I can no longer receive the following channels: 8 Channel 4 , 11 PICK TV, 19 Dave, 20 Really, 29 E4+1, 46 Challenge, 49 Food Network
I have also had intermittent problems with:
12 Yesterday, 15 Film 4, 18 4Music, 21 VIVA, 24 ITV.
All were received in the past with no problems.
I have run the tests to exclude any Local analogue interference. I have also zeroid the TV and freewiew tuners before retuning them again.
I switched to Freeview fairly early so my aerial is pointed/lined up to the Mendip transmitter.
Since the Calne transmitter is now broadcasting digital, do you think I would receive the missing channels if I re-aligned my aerial to the Calne rather than Mendip transmitter?
If not, any other ideas how I can get the missing channels again.
