Re: Freeview channels disappeared overnight?

As you are getting very little on ch 55 I suspect you are actually picking up The Wrekin instead of Sutton Coldfield on the other Muxes as well.

If your aerial is pointed at Sutton Coldfield then you either need a more directive aerial or have it changed for one that points at The Wrekin. As your location says Telford, The Wrekin is probably the strongest signal at your location and the freeview equipment will always be locking onto it.
Thanks for all your help!
They are now back as of tonight, it must have been the snow in the past few days that has caused it.
Retuned tonight, and when adding channels, ITV4 popped up so I knew it was back on, checked, Film 4 = Yes, 4Music = Yes and so on!

Sorry for inconvenience caused
