DeathAxe Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Hi folks, having a few issues with freeview. One tv with inbuilt wont tune in channels on the itv 1 and channel 4 band, and the other tv with a freeview box tunes in channels in a funny order. itv 1 being on 1, bbc 1 being on 5 6 or something like that. Is this due to the season or something? just started happening recently after the message popped up on bbc 1 telling you to retune (something to do with red button or some such rubbish) Areal on the roof is set up like main for downstairs one wire coming off it, then a second areal is attached under it for the upstairs with 2 wires coming off it. Only one of those wires is used though. not sure if that helps in finding out what's going on or not. Question while we are here, what happened to the end of March switch over? I think it was mentioned on here a while ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John X Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Question while we are here, what happened to the end of March switch over? Just as well it didn't! My aerial was moved during the last high winds and I've lost BBC1 and 2 on Freeview so had to retune to the old analogue transmissions to watch the snooker!

mystie Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 I'm always having issues with freeview reception, I hope they are going to enhance the signal in some way when they switch over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Foster Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Question while we are here, what happened to the end of March switch over? I think it was mentioned on here a while ago. It was never down for March. Switch over takes place this August - after that your freeview reception should be much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathAxe Posted April 24, 2011 Author Share Posted April 24, 2011 It's not a box problem then? just wondering if a new one is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1nutter Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 I'm always having issues with freeview reception, I hope they are going to enhance the signal in some way when they switch over. When the switch over is complete the signal will be something like 30 times stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rn.1985 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 Hi - I have a problem with mine. Yesterday everything was fine with the tv and today i can't get any channels on my tv or through my freeview box. The council came and connected it up a couple of months ago ready for the switchover. Not sure whats heppening with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
