We're receiving from Pontop Pike. As of last night 8 Jan, our 2 yr old Panasonic TV reports "No Service" on any of the previously perfect CH50 stations (10-ITV3, 38-Quest, etc). They still appear in the Program Guide & Signal strength and quality are both maximum; I've tried resetting, retuning, and confirmed that everything's still tuned to Pontop Pike.
Annoyingly, our Humax PVR (on the same aerial) is unaffected, (I've disconnected it to eliminate possible problems). Our two other small TVs (Samsung and Asda cheapie) are also still working perfectly.
A neighbour with a similar Panasonic has exactly the same problem.
Any ideas?

Thanks Dave, I've just spoken to the retailer (John Lewis) who spoke to Panasonic while I was on hold who, in turn, said they've had several complaints about this; I was assured they'll be looking into this and there may be a s/w update in the near future.
Perhaps this post could/should be moved onto the Pontop Pike page?

Regarding the issue of Pontop Pike Ch50 being missing (on Panasonic TVs??).
As of 1400 today (Thurs), someone seems to have undone whatever they did to cause it; the problem seems to be resolved, missing stations are again available.
I assume anyone who did a full reset/rescan to try to resolve it will have lost the stations from their program guides and will now have to rescan Ch50 to get them back.

Pontop's Ch50 problem now seems to be fixed.
ITV3, Quest etc are viewable again.
