Jb38 Have tried all suggestions except replacing cable some improvement with an additional booster helped but is not ideal improves signal level but quality still low.
Picture locks ok.
Do you think as Rowridge is only 27 miles A group aerial horizontal would work?Connected to distribution amp with a di-plexer.
Could use this for all PSB mux as well as for additional HD services leaving wide band aerial on Mendip for the other programmes.Providing a reasonable signal from Rowridge is available.Location BH15 3RJ

MikeB: Re You View Box In the Settings menu under Device Management the RF Loop Through can be turned on or off just wondered if Linda has checked this setting it might be set to off position.

jb38 No chance of signal from Rowridge as aerials are now Poole for PSB and Mendip
for all others [High Pressure does not affect Mendip fog sometimes will not a real problem]

jb38 Have had installer call to try and sort Ch 33 problem he separated the two aerials and connected Mendip aerial to head amp but did not get any usable signal showing only 2 bars on quality (until having aerial installed to receive Poole there was a fair signal on Samsung and good one on You View) So reluctantly I have given up effort to obtain Com7. Thanks for all your help and advice.

For the past 10 days I have been having considerable interference on most freeview channels.Aerial firm insisted it was 4G interference . Filters supplied byat800 have made no difference.The main com causing problem is Com5.Don't know if high pressure is the cause but have not had this much on Mendip before.Post code BH15 3RJ.{or whether it is connected to dual aerial system I use]
