Is anybody in the middlesbrough area (bilsdale transmitter ) having problems getting channels?

We lost most of the channels yesterday at about 17:00,
about 11:00 today I retuned all tv's and all was good. 16:40 tonight switch on tv and most channels gone again???

anyone getting the same problem??

thanks Kymmy

I had a peek at that site, there is a possible explanation when you scroll down to near the bottom of the comments.
One reason could be the moving of aerials further up/down the mast??
who knows.
I'll just have to wait and see.

ooh can't wait until november 2012

Has anybody else been having problems with freeview or am the only one?? because I am hoping its Bilsdale transmitter , I have tried all the other possibilities I think

I live close to the Sutton Coldfield masts.

I rarey use freeview as I have Sky and FTA sat but occasionally I use it for PiP.

Yesterday I discovered that I was only getting a few FV channels so I did a rescan.

I only got 7...all BBC and 301.

Any ideas?

Dave.
