    @jaxlfc_jj @YaTerrynorris70 It’s not restricted to the BBC. If you watch or record live TV on any channel - either through your TV or through a website - then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home, & whether or not you watch BBC channels.

    FREEVIEW DVB-T RECEPTION. There is currently a High Barometric Weather system over the UK and this is causing reception problems as regards Freeview Channels. Nothing can be done about it apart from moving to Satellite TV. Please don't adjust your TV's Tuning?

  • ScaramangaJoe Joe Scaramanga (@ScaramangaJoe) reported

    @barbarossa69 NEVER! Come the apocalypse I'll still be able to hook up a Freeview box to my CRT TV.

  • macman9999 macman9999 (@macman9999) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice You can get good clear pictures from Mars but not from Freeview, about time this problem was put right, i keep losing all BBC Channels, nothing sorts the problem out. its a service not fit for purpose.

    @andybee There goes my dream of getting R1 2 & 3 enough Freeview bandwidth in Scotland so that they no longer need to be stood down to for Alba between 1700 & 0000.

  • AndyEMorrison Andy Morrison (@AndyEMorrison) reported

    @trevorw1953 It won't be- it will be using spare bandwidth available when CBBC closes down at 7pm. BBC4 is the best channel on Freeview imho.

  • Lukeytoons Luke Hayes (@Lukeytoons) reported

    @TCL_Europe hello, I have a #TCL 55C815 and the freeview play does not work at all even though there is a dedicated remote button. Have any other #TCL owners got this problem?
