This cold weather must be the cause of my present poor reception; this morning the MUX 1 channels are only at quality 1 and the MUX 2 and MUX B channels are at 0 (zero) so no reception at all!
MUXs A C and D are at quality 2/3 so mainly watchable.
These numbers are out of a possible 10 on my Panasonic TV set-up menu.
I hope that after DSO the power levels will be such that in a cold spell like this I'll still get quality 2 at the worst... if not the aerial will have to be changed again (and this is with a 10db amplifier in the feeder)!

Lance Spencer: If you get problem in freezing weather, this is usually because there is water in your cables and when it freezes it expands and prevents reception. If this is the case, replace the cable with satellite-grade coax.
It is not likely that the increased power levels will deal with actual cable damage.

Would sudden loss of MUX 1 and 2 Channels have something to do with the upcoming switchover? I have suddenly lost them, after working fine and never having any problems? Rescans have not helped. RG22
