We have been receiving all freeview stations transmitted from Angus for a number of years, all at good signal strength. However, sometime during the night of Saturday 8th November we have lost all but Channel 53 PSB2 and Channel 49 COM6. Both of these channels are still at 100% strength but all others have disappeared. Have there been any changes taken place at that particular time? i.e. I believe that G4 signal can have this effect. What is the cure to my problem please?
