    @BoostTorbay @AndrewBrazier1 Never used the first two options. Very much old school. None of the fancy pants Sky or Virgin Media either. Just plain old Freeview for me

    @SportsCarChamp @FreeSports_TV I HOPE SIGNALS BETTER THAN THE CRAP ONE ON FREEVIEW!!!

  • SuperSajuuk Gordon (@SuperSajuuk) reported

    @PhilPhenom Latest tweet would imply their online service is not working this evening, as they only point people to the Red Button [Sky/Freesat 981, Freeview 601] instead of the usual "Red Button and iPlayer".

  • brains2laurie Brian Laurie (@brains2laurie) reported

    @channel5_tv Yes.. 7mins before the end your channel 5+1 has gone down on Freeview #dissapointed

  • Brekkietweets Brekkie (@Brekkietweets) reported

    Obviously today they'd be issues anyway but generally speaking finding Freeview HD muxes far less resiliant than they used to be. As much as I think a switch to an HD/T2 only platform is long overdue I guess there are advantages to having the SD backup for the main chanenls.

    @FreeviewTV I have had no Freeview channels all day today. After a retune gone from 148 TV channels to 14. Please help. Area is BN16

  • EmmaLovelace Emma Lovelace (@EmmaLovelace) reported

    @wgoodf Is this why my Freeview reception is now awful?

  • stevend32718662 Stevend32718662 (@stevend32718662) reported

  • neill_mckeown Neill McKeown (@neill_mckeown) reported

    @2020YNWAP Via freeview need to be able to get the Saorview signal etc

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

    @smurph25 @cleanfeed_ttvr Until earlier on, the slot was showing a Saorview information video. 544x576 SD, same resolution as Sky News on Freeview.

    @keithbelfast @rte It never has been before and they stream it internationally so I think you'll be ok. Stream sometimes struggles so Sky/Freeview would be best...
