I am making do with old (band A?) aerial at present and get the main channels okay, I also get channel 51 on a good day and 52 on a very good day but no sign of channel 48 ?
Could it be that the mode of ch48 is not compatible with my TV or would you expect the problem to be solved with a wideband aerial.

JB38. Thank you for your quick reply. I have already tried manual tune and that always shows 0 for C48, best seen for C51 is around 75% "quality" (but very variable). Mind you my set is a bit funny as it shows 0 for C21 (HD stuff) but gets the stations no problem !?
I wonder if the same "mode" was used for the mutex before it was moved to C48 (last Sep?) ? I could receive it then (on a good day). Grateful for any comment.

Dave Lindsay. Thank you for that info.
Signal strength on C24, C27 shows 100% now so wont see any difference there.

Dave Lindsay. Just checked manual tuning again for C48,51,52 ... varies with the weather. And finally found stations on C48 ! (very poor quality)
Actual "Quality" measures upto 19% C51, 9% C52 but still 0% C48. (Not sure if truly 0, my set a bit strange ... always reports 0 for C21 ?)
Gives me more incentive to get a new aerial.
Thank you for you interest.

Hi. Since my last message had a period of poor reception for C52 but for the last few days been good yet find I am back to the situation of no stations detected for C48 ?
