Hi I live in Stevenage , I recently bought a Technika stbhdh2010 box from Tesco for my daughters room.I have run off the existing aerial coming from the roof (an extremely long run as it goes down to the ground floor then back up to our room and across to her room). The box seems to be working quite well although she is missing ITV, C4, C5, etc. (looks like one multiplex). When I first installed the box, I mistakenly selected the option to use the London transmitter which is quite far away and not the Sandy Heath transmitter. Does anyone know how to change transmitters on this box, as it seems that it will let me re-tune, etc. but I can't find any option to change which transmitter I receive the signal from. Or will re-routing the aerial help, or installing a loft aerial? Any advice, please?

Thanks for the reply, Mike.
I can't find another manual for this box, although I have noticed that the aerial is facing south from me, ie. towards London, so perhaps I am best to leave it.
I have a few ideas about shortening the cable run, I will try those first.
If that does not help I will consider getting a new loft aerial, which will considerably shorten the cable runs and hope that switchover in April will improve the situation.
