Hi,
During the last week or so, I have been helping some elderly friends to re-tune their equipment - a mix of built-in TV and set-top boxes and have a problem with one installation. I did a 'first time installation' procedure and all channels except BBC2 were present. I repeated the procedure twice, but the result was just the same - no BBC2.
The equipment is a set top box located in Richmond North Yorks - Post code DL10 7DQ and the aerial is chimney mounted.
Do you think the situation is liable to be resolved after the 26th September?
Thanks.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for your reply
I am 100% sure that I am not trying to view the Analogue signal, since when I change channels using the remote control, there is always a pop-up window showing DTV and the selected channel, but BBC2 is missing from the channel list. I do realise that BBC2 is no longer available on Analogue.....

I seem to remember reading somewhere, that some early 'Digiboxes' had problems resolving particular channels ?? I'm not sure of the Make/Model of the unit in question and will not be able to find out until mid next week - friends are away at present....

Further thought to my comments above - I could select other 'Free-to-Air' channels such as ITV2, ITV3, Dave, Pick TV etc. which would confirm that I was viewing Digital TV....
