  After the reply from Luke (thanks) I checked the tuning on my TV and it verified CH55 746 MHz with quality 10 and strength 10 (out of 10) So I tried another manual tune on the Humax leaving the default 8Mhz with DVB-T2 and that showed 65% strength and 100% quality and tuned fine. So perhaps a...

2. Issues after the 7 March retune event
  
  I am having similar issues with winter hill and my humax. It is very strange as my TV (that takes the aerial after the humax) can receive BBC news hd fine and my humax during a manual tune doesn't even find the channel. Has anyone found a resolution to this?

  Thanks Ezra, EPG region is North West which looks correct. What happens is that if I notice the failure I can wait a few days and try again and it will work. I think that my EPG schedule extends for 5-6 days rather than the 7 days I get via RS and that causes the issue when I use that to...
