Any one else getting really crap reception since last week's free view retune?
The reception's ok, it's just the programmes that are crap!

you can get it for nowt ya knowI can't get BBC1, BBC2, BBC4 or BBC News or Parliament and I never had a single problem before we went digital. Yet another con to make us all fork out for new equipment.
Wow. Impressive shit DaveThey're moving all the channels to a narrower set of frequencies so it doesn't interfere with 5G but I reckon quite a few will need new aerials to keep everything as they're doing more channel moves in April with potentially bigger impact.
Those you mentioned are all in the same channel group (MUX) via Winter Hill and did move on the 20th Feb (from Ch50 to Ch32 although I can pick up duplicate copies of the channels from both these so maybe Ch50 is still broadcasting). Ch32 is the lowest channel number frequency currently in use and ideally needs a group A aerial (Ch21-37) but other aerial types may pick them up. If you have a C/D aerial (Ch48-68) that may be why yours have gone. Before 2018 a C/D aerial would have been ideal as the range for all channels from Winter Hill was Ch49-62. Another MUX was moved to Ch37 in 2018 and I had those channels but have now lost those since last week. (Which I don't understand because I can tune into those on Ch32). The annoying thing is the changes due in April move 4 more channel groups into the range Ch29-35 (from the range Ch49-59). No idea what I'll get when that happens.
Yeah, not nerdy at all.Wow. Impressive shit Dave
If you're anywhere near M26 i've got a mate who does that.Yeah, not nerdy at all.
Also, lost my bloody channels again (or at least v poor reception - think I'll order a new aerial).
