Hi,
I live in the SS0 post code area before DSO today I had a decent signal across the board using a high gain wideband Ariel pointing at the Sudbury transmitter. However, since retuning this morning the signal on channel 50 is very flaky al the the others are fine, is there any reason for this?
Thank you in advance

Hi I live near Southend SS0. Since the 16th November I have been able to pick up channel 63 Arq B signal strength 73%. Between Dso and the 16th I had a very flaky picture on channel 50 with a signal strength below 25%. Before DSo I had no problems picking up all Muxes.
I have a wideband ariel that is a year old pointing at Sudbury's transmitter , I also have a four way amplifier to supply the whole house.
Those of us that use the Sudbury seem to have more retunes than the average and lower power output.
It would seem for now that I am one of the lucky ones! Roll on June 2012 when hopefully all these problems will be put behind us.

Chris Gardiner: I have also lost Arq A today for the first time since November. Strangely Arq B which is on a lower signal is working fine.I am in south Essex.

My Mother is having the same problem on the same channels. Have retuned each channel but the same channels are still breaking up. She lives in SS4 post code area.

Cheers Ken. My Mothers Ariel was professionally installed to Blue Bell Hill in November last year. It is only in the last month or so that she has encountered problem of breaking up pictures on ArqB. She is also able to receive PSB channels on the back of the Ariel from Rouncefall about three miles to the North. I wonder if this could be the problem.
