We have a freeview tv downstairs, which shows all the channels with no problem. However, we have just bought a new lg freeview tv for the bedroom and I have tried to autotune it twice, but it is not showing ITV1, Ch4 or 5. ITV 3 and Ch 5+1 is on there, as well as all the BBC channels and numerous others. What should we do?
We live in north Hampshire, and usually have London TV.

DianeS: Yes. It is an outside aerial.

Re my earlier problems not getting ITV1, Ch4,Ch5, etc when autotuning our new TV in the bedroom.
We took your advice and set the TV up in the other room using the other aerial socket. Doing this we were able to receive these channels. However, back on the wall in the bedroom, it just said 'no signal' for those channels!
Using trial and error, we have discovered that the channels are fine when we use the aerial cable from the other room, but not with the new one we bought. Unfortunately we have had some problems getting an aerial cable to fit behind the TV on the wall, the original one we purchased didn't fit as the connections stuck out too far. We got a new one with right angled connections, but found the ends were wrong, so replaced that with another one with two male ends. However this is now the one that is not working. The whole thing is driving us mad!
It seems to be difficult finding anywhere that sells coax cables with right-angled connections, and we got that one from the internet, but it seems like the qualtity must be duff, so what do we do now?
Bedroom wall has had new wiring put in, plaster re-skimmed and decorated, etc - so we have to have the TV on the wall.
Any advice please, before we through the wretched thing out the window?? Thanks
