Hemel Hempstead
Our tv reception has got worse since 14th September when we had to retune our tv. We get pixels and the signal cuts out. Do you have any comments?

Lee Beckwith: You should carry out a signal check on BBC1 to make sure you see Hemel Hempsteads Mux Ch56 indicated and not Sandy's Mux Ch27, as the predictor indicates Sandy as also being a possibility for reception on your post code.
Hemels ITV1 being Mux Ch55 whereas Sandy's is Mux Ch24.

Berkhamsted
Please can anyone give some advise as to how well Berkhamsted (Dudswell HP4 3TH)will be served after the digital switchover DSO. I have 2 aerials and over the years I have long periods of using Bedmond, or Crystal palace. currently using Crystal P. with mast amplifier new aerial installation 2 years ago. However,is there any likelyhood that either or at least one transmitter will be boosted in power at the time of DSO, or some time there abouts. Analogue is always grainy but watchable when digital is unbearable (5% of the time). Many thanks for any information/ knowledge that may give some ray of hope. peter.stears@2e2.com
