    Can't wait for my new TV roof aerial to arrive. Nothing to do with the #Bilsdale outage; never been able to get all the Freeview channels with my current, ancient one. #BilsdaleFire

    @JeremyVineOn5 A paedetrician on GB News (freeview 236) last week said higher chance of under 18s dying of heart problems following jab than dying of Covid. If they’ve already had covid the chance of dying after jab even greater

    @FreeviewTV Curious to know in the good old days here in Gorran Haven with analogue TV we might only of had 3/4 channels. Now with Freeview in certain weather conditions we get poor or no signal for days. We can retune and get French channels Can anything be done to resolve it?

  • NFGmart martyn notman (@NFGmart) reported

    @alanplynch Apparently its a freeview issue here!

  • merseytart Scott (@merseytart) reported

    Another hotel, another auto tune of the TV to get an up to date Freeview channel list. I should charge for this service.

  • JamesHotham Agent H (@JamesHotham) reported

    @shen_shiwei @SameeraKhan I've never seen it on Freeview, even a look now, not there. I see RT, AL Jazeera, Sky, BBC etc, even GBNews. (PressTV long gone) any idea what channel it "should" be on? Also, could it be restricted by regions/signal etc.

  • a516digital Mike (ex-a516digital) (@a516digital) reported

    @belperite Hi. Good question. The satellite feed is broadcast in DVB-S. It has to be converted into a DVB-T multiplex using a modulator so that Freeview devices can receive it. The solution for ITV/C4 and C5 means they can use a similar system to that used in hotels and ships, no encoder.

    Today’s first world problem: switching to the I-Player for the Hundred match because the picture for BBC2 is a bit fuzzy on Freeview, and being a bit sulky that it’s about 30 seconds delayed.
