Switch over today (Glasgow, using Black Hill). BBC1, BBC2, News24, and a few others (all on mux 1 I believe) were gone. So far I have tried the following in order to get them back:

- Re-scanning -> did find them.
- Factory reset which initiated automatic re-scanning. All channels were found apart from the above.

Box is an old Philips DTR1500. Signal shows 50% strength, 100% quality. Aerial is a year old - SR18E from blake-uk.com. Using a cheapish signal booster as reception is quite poor otherwise.

Any suggestions as to how to proceed?

Oops! Should have read:

- Re-scanning -> DID NOT find them.

Thanks Mike.

- Removed the booster - signal level dropped from 50 to 40%, but quality still 100%.
- Did a 'Restore virgin mode', and again the BBC1/2, etc are missing. All other channels are OK. BTW, this is the procedure that I followed before when I referred to Factory reset.

My post code is G62 7LA.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks again.
