Since M&M lauched on Freeview my reception has got a lot worse particually bad are The Hits and TMF also M&M is unwatchable. Has anybody else had the same problem?

Iam hoping E4 isnt going to affect the reception even more.

It hasn't affected our reception, although it seems to be stuck on the Men & Motors channel as our cat is fascinated by the mud wrestling!

Picture constantly freezes and also since it lauched the quality of the other channels on the MUX, TMF,The Hits and UK History has got alot worse. I live at Halfway in a bit of a dip which doesnt help.

I live in Mosborough and my post code is a no no as far as Freeview is concerned. But with a change of ariel to a high gain type (From Wilkinsons) I can now view it. I do lose the signal on some channels now and then, something to do with atmospherics.

I recently fitted a mast head amplifier and this has improved things no end.

My next step is to upgrade the arield to longer high gain type.

How do I get the m&m channel, do I have to tune into it or is it automatic.

The only thing worth watching on M & Ms is 'The Professionals' and that ain't that good

Done it thanks.
Picture freezes a bit but the new antenna should sort it out when I get one. Just seen a 52 element in Focus for £29 or £38 from Argos. Any one no of any Cheaper?

Great news about E4. M&M and E4 are the only channels I really miss after cancelling SKY. Well I miss TCM, but theirs an new film channel available now called Matinee Movies on the sky box and its free to view.
