    @GBNEWS Finally on air .The 1970s graphics are almost bearable but the complete inability to produce any broadcast quality sound is not. Fix it please then I can try and listen to you .I watch on freeview in London.

  • markvonrichards Marko Von Richards🤡 (@markvonrichards) reported

    On a freeview HD channel. Just what kind of idiot buys from them to justify the waste of broadcast spectrum?

  • banihwah Hugh P (@banihwah) reported

    @gbnews Just a heads up, on Freeview your sound output is really low. If I hop between channels you are perhaps 25% down on the others.

  • man_dobro DobroMan (@man_dobro) reported

    @GBNEWS I can no longer watch, the picture and sound level is awful on Freeview 236. The set is too dark. I want to support you but can't at this point in time.

  • mjsmith75 Mathew J Smith (@mjsmith75) reported

    @GBNEWS any chance you can sort the sound quality out on Freeview please. It is awful and can hardly hear what is being said even with the volume on high. Others have complained to. Please sort it out or people will just turn off. #sortthesoundout

  • eddsirr Edd Sirr (@eddsirr) reported

    Watched 5 minutes of @GBNEWS - god it’s awful. 5 minutes of ego boosting self gratification amongst the presenters and panel, 5 minutes of poorly cut clips and amateurish direction and camera work. What a waste of freeview space.

  • ShazzaG8 Shazza G (@ShazzaG8) reported

    @HarryyMUFC Hard to tell, the production levels are so bad it's barely audible on freeview 👍

  • k4bladesagain cheekfulloftongue🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@k4bladesagain) reported

    @FreeviewAdvice @robertamw The sound seems very low so I have to turn the volume up much higher than other channels. Not sure if this is due to something at their end or due to some sort of Freeview issue???

  • wisteriawitch Lynne (@wisteriawitch) reported

    @JOEPUBLIC20171 @GBNEWS @afneil I'd be happy just to have some proper sound so I can hear it. Apparently those watching it via Freeview are having the same problem.

    @jangotch @GBNEWS Not seeing any syncing problems here at all (IOS/Android/VM & Sky) are you on Freeview? #gbnews
