    Missing Freeview Channels

    Thanks Paul - So I checked my Transmitter - its a Repeater (Aldeburgh) - transmitting Freeview Lite. So there's the answer to the missing Multiplex Groups. What about the HD channels - are they on Freeview Lite? Not picking them up. Should I be? Richard

    "no signal" any ideas?!?!

    SKy card will be OK if you are only looking for BBC / ITV / 4 / 5 etc Might take a few hours to pick up ITV stuff - but it will do in the end. You'll only need a new decoder
