i keep getting no signal/ bad signal / this channel maybe blocked or scrambled on certain stations , Digital UK says i should be receiving my signal from Sandy Heath as my postcode is LU55HR when i check the signal detection it say Oxon & Bucks, its coming from and Digital Uk says there is no such transmitter ?? strength is good but no quality, i have to daily do a rescan to keep trying to pick up a signal so i can view some of my stations or to get the missing ones like Pick tv , Really, etc back again and when i do get them back i keep getting the same messages and if i am luckily enough to get a picture its keeps breaking up, I have had some one out to check my aerial and it cost me £40 to be told everything was fine and i had good signal strength and quality, i can afford to get some one else out and its driving me mad by having to retune, some of the signal detedtions says they are East Yorks & Lincs ! which is way up country from me, am really at a lost, is there anyone can help please 
that should of read i CANT afford to get some one to come out again
other signal detection am getting is Cambs & Beds , none of my detections are coming from Sandy Heath have check all the station i have jb38: and KMJ thansks, i did do a factory restore which wiped everything off completely and I dont have an HD box just a Humax PVR 9150T digi box , I tried to do the manual scan and it only gives me 68 station and of that 22 is radio stations :(, then i got it up to the 148 stations doing a auto search , i find if i do them individually it wipes previous ones i found that i had a good signal on off, so back to square one, it wont store each station when i do a manual search i lose the ones i did find on a previous manual search, i now have my Really, Pick tv and other ones i was missing back but they just break up or have no or bad signal saying when i go onto them :(. i feel like throwing the box out the window, as its been driving me mad for months now, and it all started when they did the switch over was all ok till then, I also dont have ITV3, BBC1 & 2 unless i got down to channel 800 for them, No Dave BBC3 or 4 no ITV2+1 :( infact just gone through them all and i dont have anything now lol they are all saying no or bad signal helpppppppppppp infact all i have now that I can watch is itv2 ch4 and ch5 everything else says no or bad signal :(
aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh ive got my stations back !!!!! woooooooooo hoooooooooooooooo took me for ever but i went through it all manually, only thing is they are not in the order like ch1-BB1 CH2-BBC2 ETC etc theyre down in the 800's so if i can find a way now to swap the numbers over lol i will be back to normal, i now have a great picture on Pick tv and really, best ive ever had lol my main two stations i watch apart from CH5 lol thanks for all you help at least i know i can watch tv again x Spoke to soon my pick yv and really stations are still breaking up oh well at least they are better, am not getting no or bad signal now lol oh forgot to mention i have great signal strength poor signal quality anymore advice please am at a lost, cant affod to pay some one to come out and tell me yet again everything is fine ch52 has good signal strength but no quality at all jb38: i did everything you said and it stored the stations this time, but.......when i come to CH52 and do a search on that it comes up with no stations found, and 52 is all the stations i prefer to watch and the ones i am now missing, some woman at Digital Uk told me my problem was with my neighbours doing something that interefers with my signal, but they arent, then she went on to tell me i need a new aerial but ive had it all checked out and its fine. On ch 52 i have poor quality and no signal at all ....... and the only wat i found i can get these stations back is by doing an autoscan , but when i get them they kepep breaking up or saying no or bad signal, or this channel may be blocked or scrambled i guess i will have to resign myself to be with out these, which is then no point in having a tv since theyre the stations i watch, jb38: hiya i just did what you have asked and gone into see what the strength and signal is on Ch52 and for some reason the strength is at 61% and the quality fluctuates between 50 and 75, normally when i go in there , there is completely no quality at all, how strange that i an getting that today, my picture on these Pick tv is terrible it keeps breaking up, the strength doesnt move at all it is staying at 61% just the quality that is moving, my neighbour have sky or virgin am the only one in my little caul-de -sac that has freeview :( jb38: it rained yesterday, thunder storms , and heavy down pour....... i had all my stations !!! everything worked , no breaking up etc etc perfect picture...............turned tv on this morning, lost Pick TV again saying no or bad signal or this station my be scrambled. also lost Really tv, Yesterday keeps breaking up, weather today has been light showers, but mainly sunshine, seems i need it to constantly rain for to get a perfect picture with no lost of viewing at all :( i guess i will just have to resign myself to miss all my favourite programs. i will check again in a few days to see what the signal is like, but i wont keep messing around with it. thats it now, thanks again to all that has tried to help, seems like my only option is Virgin ir Sky and i cant afford either lol xx jb38: cant afford freesat, and like sky it is not good as there are trees around my garden ( council property ( so i cant cut them down, sky say there is no line of sight, ie trees blocking signal , which i already knew as being an ex sky employee, had a fantastic picture earlier then it rained :( all broke up then it stopped raining, it was fine, not its raining again, lost the picture l going to go and stick a huge umbrella over my aerial lol see it that makes a difference ! x
jb38: hi, i had an engineer out when i first moved in, am i in a ground floor council flat the woman who lives up stairs also wouldnt let me have a dish put on "her property" as she put it as she owns her flat up stairs, so my dish would have to be low and around the back of my property, I am in the property that adjoins at right angle lol, tipical isnt it, ive given up trying to watch my stations now i even just tried to watch a film on film 4 and it keeps breaking up, same with a few other stations now, may aswell get rid of my tv , as it will save me money not having to fork out for a tv licences for something i cant watch half the time, thanks for all your help and advice, time to get rid rid of tv !!!! jb38: Hi again, i will try a signal booster as this is driving me round the bend, even though i like watching the Olympic ( not much choice really ) i am getting a bot board with it and i miss my programmes from Really, Pick tv etc, but do you think a booster will help ? if it pours down with rain i have a great picture but for the past few days ive had nothing at all on those stations :( i just cant understand the weather causing so much trouble with my viewing . so will get a booster like you said if it doesnt work i can always return it lol thanks again x ( oh cut down a lot of those trees that you see on google, but cant cut down the ones surrounding the property as they are council ) lol Had a look at the signal booster in argos, i will also have to get an aerial extension and if my outside aerial goes into that i will need something to run from that to the digibox i will see how it goes x jb38: thank you for all your help, i got one of those one for all signal splitter/ amplified 10x gain which takes up to 4 tv at a car boot this morning for £1.50 ( selling in PC World for £29.99 ) so i thought id give it a try, and it works !!!! i retuned my freeview box did an automatic search instead of a manual and ive got perfect tv now, even all the station i could only get before when it rained are now there, and at a bargain price !!! i would never have thought of getting one of these if you hadnt suggested it, so anyone else out there having problems look for one of these, its called one for all signal splitter sv9542 . thanks again Suzy jb38: i have to do a retune on the 19th :( as it has been saying on Really that some stations are changing on the 19th to different Numbers !!! so will let you know the outcome of that when it happens, but its been great to have all my stations back again, really, pick tv , Yesterday etc etc, no freezing or breaking up and weather has been sunny and rain and the picture on the tv hasnt change infact its a lot clearer than it was before , got a lovely picture ! let hope after the retune it all stays the same, wish i didnt have to do it, but if i dont i wont be getting those channels x jb38: Hiya did my scan got all the station in the new order except Yesterday, no were to be found but i will try again later for that, but everything is all working ok :) all station are still working really well with a brilliant picture on all stations x
