Re: Film4 signal on Freeview's rubbish
I have now checked all other channels on that mux, all bar Virgin 1 are breaking up. Could something have been changed at the transmitter?

Other thing is the "basket" on the back of the aerial's a bit cock-eyed on the top-side of the aerial. Could that affect it? Been like it for a year, Film4's only been breaking up since June.

And I've just checked the list on Wikipedia which is far more accurate, and all channels on the "D" mux are breaking up. (C64 at Tacolneston)

So what could be done about it? My Dad's prohibited me from re-scanning the box cos in high pressure we lose a lot of channels in a re-scan.
