Message from the Quest Team

14th May 2009 10:00am

Regrettably we have made the decision to postpone the launch of Quest.

Due to a number of commercial factors we have had to make this difficult decision.

We did not make this decision lightly and we are working towards launching Quest in the near future.

We would like to apologise wholeheartedly to any of you that have been looking forward to this launch.

Still alive and kicking in the Home Counties also. No engineering work showing on the Digital UK website in your area. Try a full retune and with any luck that should restore the channel.

I'm on the Emley Moor Transmitter... I know our area is going fully digitial in August...so its possibly related to that, but it was there the day before yesterday, and now it isn't...rather odd, it was my fave channel :(

Can you watch / pick up ''Gems TV'' on Freeview Channel 43?
or try an retune.

It looks like the TV did an automatic retune - which is what made Quest disappear from the EPG.

I always find it's best to do a factory reset than a simple retune.. especially when they've altered mux's or frequencies
