TRANSMITTER PROBLEM
It appears that the HD MUX (PSB3 on frequency channel 29) is off air.
This happened firstly early this evening - my neighbour somehow got hold of Arqiva who switched Chesterfield to the reserve transmitter at about 20:15, thus restoring service.
At about 21:15, the multiplex went off air again - I have called the BBC who said they have 'reported the problem'.
