Have you tried re-tuning in all the channels like you did when you first got the box?

My Freeveiw box seems to be working fine by the way!

Mine got a bit neurotic but there's a small reset button on the back of it, try that. Also, try retuning all the channels.

£40 ? You got everything including the Adult channels then ?

 

[Cian]

No, Sky is significantly more expensive in Ireland. Sky World is nearly €60 a month.

But anyway, I pay €0 a month.

My freeview reception has been dreadful since the start of June.

I used to be able to get BBC 1, 2 & 3, E4+1, UKTV History, Sky Three, Sky News and Sky Sports News. This suited me fine, although obviously I would have preferred the full range.

Now all I can get is BBC 4, BBC Parliament and if I am lucky BBC 1 or 2 for about 20 minutes!

I would guess that your aerial has gone on the fritz, or water has got in to your cabling. While analogue may still seem OK, digital eventually just hits a cliff and you get nothing. Either go up on the roof/in to the attic yerself or get a CAI-registered aerial installer around to take a look.

freeview? sounds like something STOODENTS own

 

[Braders]

f***ing shitty devils work

i want it as its got sky three (Dream Team repeats and that) as its not avaliable on NTL but they don't do it in Patcham

****s!

 

[Cian]

Sky Three is on FreeSatFromSky, £150 once off and you can get it effectively everywhere.

Anyway, Patcham doesn't officially have Freeview but a lot of people have reported being able to pick it up off the Whitehawk Hill transmitter according to a quick google. Again, try an an aerial installer if you want.
