Thanks Briantist - I guessed so since I can received all channels on the BBCA mux on my Sony. On my Wharfedale, I can receive some channels such as BBC4 and CBeebies, but can't receive BBC1, BBC2, BBC3, CBBC, BBCNews etc. I'm obviously receiving the BBCA Mux on the Wharfedale. Any ideas what the problem could be? Thanks

Actually, looks like I could be getting BBC4, Cbeebies and the BBC Radio channels through Mux B .... So perhaps I've an issue with the BBCA Mux in general. I see it's transmitting at 50kW - I've unplugged my distribution amplifier and still no joy!

Briantist: Before switchover, BBC2 analogue was fine. I've also looked at the single frequency interference posts.
My arial signal is going into my Sky box, and then the RF out is taken back into the loft to a distributor box. I've tried byu-passing the sky box and I have the same issue. Secondly, the arial must be receiving the new BBCA Mux since my other freeview device (SOny Bravia) is working fine.

Duncan Eves: I live fairly close to you (SO20) and I had very similar issues - ie. all channels on the new BBCA Mux (Ch45) were lost on my WharfedaleLCD 2010AF (ie. BBC1, BBC2, BBC3, BBC News etc.). Prior to this, my BBC 2 analogue was fine (which used this same frequency prior to the switchover). I eliminated my aerial, since my Sony Bravia has no problems. I eliminated my Sky+ box, by by-passing it. I eliminated my amplified distribution box in the loft, by bypassing that. I resolved it by using a spare free view set-top I have (Panasonic - more than 10 years old) which had not problems. I'm deducing my Wharfedale has the 2k-mode issue. I'm not convinced the list of effected tv's with this issue is meant to be absolutely complete. I agree though, sit tight and see what happens.

Hi - I've always received a great signal from Hannington. Following the switchover today, and a re-tune, my Sony picks up all channels, but my Wharfedale LCD 2010AF does not receive BBC1, 2, 3 or News. Is the BBCA Mux transmitting all channels now (8th Feb) or will that happen on the 22nd Feb?
