I'm having trouble with a Grundig tv with built-in Freeview.
Until the recent retune it was OK but now it won't retain most of the channels.
There is roof-mounted C/D aerial which picks up Storeton Wales and Winter Hill and on doing an auto-retune everything is where expected - Wales on 1,2,3 etc. and NW in the 800's. But, put the tv into stand-by and then switch back on again and NW has moved to 1,2,3, nothing at all in the 800's and COM6/ARQB (C55), COM4/SDN (C58) and COM5/ARQA (C61) have disappeared altogether, just leaving the two PSB Muxs.
I've tried re-tuning with the aerial out to clear everything and done manual retunes but it makes no difference.
There is another tv on a separate aerial pointing in the same direction and that is OK and I've connected the Grundig to this one but result is the same as its own aerial.
Anyone any suggestions?

jb38:Thanks for that. When I go there tomorrow I'll try it but I don't recall seeeing a factory reset option on the on-screen menu. I might have to resort to the old adage of "When all else fails, read the instructions".

jb38:Cracked it. First time installation, a bit of deleting and manual retuning to get North West on 1,2,3 and the job's a good 'un.
If you are still interested the tv is a Grundig GU22WDVD3.
Thanks very much for your advice.
