    Hadn't realised rural Freeview was still so terrible compared to in metropolitan areas. I get 80 Freeview channels in Dudley nr Birmingham, Dad gets 21 in South Shropshire! And doesn't even get Sky News which I assumed was on Freeview everywhere.

    The #5g nonsense is awful. People setting fire to masts serving critical communications is madness. The frequency used in 5g has been redeployed from tv / freeview but still considerably lower power. 5g’s only side effect is faster & lower latency mobile internet #5gconspiracy

    @brianwinteruk @GoffyMedia @BBCTees It is on mine. Well...not Freeview at present in my area because the local transmitter burned down.

    @RealBlackIrish @uncanted The current ITV issue is likely a consequence of digital terrestrial infrastructure being held together with bubblegum and hope, since it's only effecting Freeview. I don't think there's a huge conspiracy to normalise the loss of Tipping Point repeats for an afternoon.

    @officalITV It appears that your channels are down on Freeview. Still can view them via ITV Hub, however surprised you have not put some statement out on this outage, given the number of complaints being made.

    @Mark56623345 High pressure may also be affecting Freeview reception. To identify if this is the cause: - Check to see if both ITV and Channel 4 have a problem. - If it's just ITV, it's the problem with the Freeview multiplex feed. - If it's both services, it's your reception.

    Anyone else having problems with Freeview as i have lost so manychabbels and reinstalled installation 4 times and still missing channels.

    @LauGoesToLondon Does it help improve your Freeview signal? I'm due my third dose sometime this month (hopefully)

  • EssexRocker Dave (@EssexRocker) reported

    Disappointed that @skytv without a dish was announced as #SlyGlass and not the service launched in other countries. Seriously, WTF is that? I'll be stuck with Freeview and the limited features of @NOW for a while 🙁💩

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

    Problems with ITV on Freeview do appear to be linked to the assembling of the D3&4 multiplex.

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

    There have been multiple reports of issues with the Freeview multiplex carrying ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 in standard definition. Different areas have been affected in different ways, but some services have been garbled/distorted,

    @charlesarthur @BBCMoreOrLess Only Freeview. Freesat ones are a bit more expensive as generally on larger Sony boxes if I stayed Sony.. Though I also have a Panasonic freesat TV which works ok. But an issue is that the current one works so I am reluctant to add it to the heap of discarded electronics.
