The signal is probably degraded at the second location and cannot be read clearly by your box.

You could turn off the power to your Freeview box and reboot it to see if the auto setup can find the missing channels.

Failing that, like the guys have said, you will need to get an aerial amplifier, a better aerial or both. Either way, it's probably a job for an installer.

Hope this helps.
