    Default Channels diappeared

    Hi

    I have a le32r88 samsung tv with built in freeview.

    I have been able to view all the channels until Tuesday when the bbc channels disappeared (Multiplex 1) I am on the blackhill transmitter, which hasnt shown any problems or work due.

    On Monday i had moved the tv and wall mounted it, including putting the wires in the chimney breast. But it was fine on monday night.

    I have checked the signal strength and it was showing a bit rate error of 10 (the Maximum) on all the missing channels.

    I have tried a rescan but this hasnt made any difference.

    Any idea's whats happened and how i could fix it would be appreciated.

    I guess your aerial has moved or you have a corrosion problem at a join attenuating the signal.Unscrew the connector and clean by shortening the lead and redoing the end if corroded.Could be your coax if they are not transmitting at reduced power on that mux.
    My partners aerial lead is joined and the problem is always in the join.No way am I going on the roof to replace the down lead.

    Oh, go on ya big girl ya... get the crampons oot

    the down cable is the most sensitive area (as well a dodgy joins) because water gets in and attenuates the signal (then corrodes the coax to make matters worse)
