    @GBNEWS You need to sort out your sound issues and improve the signal for people who watch Freeview which is probably going to be your number one source of viewers.

    @davidericstan @johnredwood Our Freeview signal is pretty poor for most channels, but GBNews is unwatchable. I now stream it from the app to the tv and have no problem with picture quality or sound... that’s providing you have an iPhone and Apple TV. I don’t know about other devices.

    @GBNEWS 236 Freeview has Al Jazzera on my TV. Help.

  • isleofmandan 🇮🇲Dan (@isleofmandan) reported

    @MaddrellDen @GBNEWS If you're high enough, you can get Freeview from Belfast or from Winter Hill, which gets all the channels. Those of us using on-island transmitters only get a snapshot of a full Freeview service. Still have to pay a full cost licence fee though! 😠

    @GBNEWS Liking the new style, thought you should know sound still poor watching on ch 236 freeview the ads and voice in studio are lower than other channels non studio guest levels are even lower a whisper .Also ticker tape still says Simon McCoy show? Vision still grainy

  • ferrarif50lover That man there (@ferrarif50lover) reported

    Right, best quality TV I ever watch is HD Freeview. I do watch Netflicks and whatnot, but I don't know what standard they're in. What's the best resolution TV is worth my getting?

    Anyone else having trouble with #FreeView channels this evening?

  • YoungOneUK AndyYoung (@YoungOneUK) reported

    @Jamesmack007 @GBNEWS It's crystal clear on Virgin Media TV in my front room but the image is fuzzy and blurry on FreeviewHD on my upstairs TV. It's down to the provider. If your watching it on Freeview that is the problem.

    GB News. A tv station to promote unionism, not my cup of tea. Seen it on Freeview, production quality is crap. Sound not syncrynised with pictures. Sound levels of interviewees all over the place. Sound generally much lower level than BBC1 etc.
