FREEVIEW BOXES need to be retuned today

47 replies

RTKangaMummy · 30/09/2009 12:15

It was supposed to be turned off at lunchtime

My Channel 5 went off air at 9.30am this morning

How is that lunchtime?????

So I watched it on analogue ~ I am lucky that in this house we have ch 5 on analogue

Why don't they switch over at 3am?

????

don't forget to retune your hard drive recorders

I would rather be able to subscribe to 'gay rabbit' if it were my sort of thing rather than just being given it whether we want it or not.

hmpff.

I like old comedy shows too instant way to relax!

AArgh! CBeebies has disappeared. Anyone else found this? What a nightmare. Used to be channel 71 for us, but no friggin sign of it now. Still have CITV and CBBC. Any suggestions?

Ripeberry · 30/09/2009 16:51

Try re-tuning it again, might come up. All our channels are back. Cbeebies comes up as 71 still and CITV is 72

gnatbite · 30/09/2009 17:14

We've just had to retune again to get CBeebies - nearly cried when it didn't come up the first time but after another go, peace is restored here!

LIZS · 30/09/2009 17:32

Mine didn't work first time got BBC channels and not much more. I took out the lead did an install to clear it, put leads back in and they all came up next time.

Toots · 30/09/2009 20:20

Just tried to do this with Humax. Seemed to go fine then whole thing just crashes and freezes. Have tried three times now. DH watching analogue portable in bedroom. Any ideas?

Meglet · 30/09/2009 22:01

If we lose cbeebies I'm getting valium.

ElectricElephant · 30/09/2009 22:10

Toots - turn off at the back and leave for 1 min, turn on again and then switch it to stand-by using the remote.

Switch it back on again and re-scan.

hope that works for you.

Has anybody else lost Fiver and Five US?

Meglet · 30/09/2009 22:19

My Fiver is still working. Some of the channel listings are blank though.

ElectricElephant · 01/10/2009 13:23

re-scanned again today and it's much better. all the channels are in a sensible order and gay rabbit has vanished (woo!)

milknosugarplease · 01/10/2009 14:00

not fathomable!!!

costagirl · 02/10/2009 18:30
