Jb38:
It appears to have completely inverted now.

strength has dropped off to practically nothing. I can recieve 31 , all on 48 - and they are unwatchable.

Maybe hd disappearing was a symptom of a faulty and the it has packed in completely now?

Dsb: If what you have reported was the result of having carried out the procedure referred to using the Panasonic then your problem could point to a defect in the line feed from the distribution used to feed a into your property, however in order to give advice appropriate to your situation could you please clarify on the following aspect of your installation that I am not quite clear about.

When you referred to a "communal " and also one mounted in the , then are you residing in a property where other residents as well as yourself have a TV aerial socket supplied from a single communal aerial, but with you having also managed to fit an aerial in the loft by having access to it?

The other thing that I meant to mention about the test being, that is to connect the aerial directly into the Panasonic and use the TV simply as a monitor for the Panasonic.

Further advice dependant on reply.

The communal and I mentioned are one and the same. It is shared with at least one other property.
I have no access to the loft where it resides.

The TV had dropped before I carried out your .

I tried both the TV on its own and the Panasonic on its own. I also tried my sisters TV (not hd). None had a reasonable signal. I even tried a different from the socket with no change.

I contacted the council months ago and their policy is for two storey flats, it is up to the occupants and not them.

Dsb: Many thanks for the update on the situation, that said by yourself having completely clarified the issue, however now that it has been then if the distribution in the has failed then it would indeed result in the type of problem you are experiencing but though so should everyone else connected into the system, as the various outputs from the amp are fed by a common amplifier meaning that any defect in the amp affects everyone.

I feel your best policy is check with one of the other residents connected into the system to enquire if they are also experiencing similar problems, because if as would be expected they are then access will be required into the loft by one means or another, as it might even be found that the problem is being caused by the to the distribution amp having accidentally been switched off.

Just purely to get an idea of the level being received you should try and borrow a set top and carry out a retune using that instead of your normal aerial connection, if though you are unable to obtain one then just use a length of wire (about 6 - 8 feet or so) connected into the aerial socket of either your TV or the Panasonic, as I am only interested in whether or not anything is received irrespective of pixilation etc.

rob: I'm so sorry... I goofed up on an SQL query and all messages with no "Your site or @twitter" were being hidden.

Everything has been restored to "normal".

Thank you so much for flagging it up.
