      Failing tuner?

      Thanks Trev & Mike Sorry to labour this point, but I CAN get a perfect picture & sound on the Com 7 & 8 channels, but only when recording/watching another channel. Perhaps this gets rid of the interference between the two transmitters? However the problem is no longer restricted to those...

      Failing tuner?

      It's a mystery then! Thanks for bearing with me and taking the time to help with this. Still interested in learning more about this, especially if it leads to a solution to the problem. Other than that, sounds like a need to start thinking about getting a new PVR.

      I'm not sure what this means, could you elaborate please?

      Failing tuner?

      Sorry, I really appreciate your help but I don't really know how to interpret these figures. The quality reading on those two transponders doesn't sound very healthy though? I've just looked again and it's down 5-10% most of the time. To recap from earlier in this thread: New aerial was...

      Failing tuner?

      Been away for a couple of weeks, but back on this now. Results of tuner test earlier in this thread. After trying a new aerial, I'm back to thinking that there is a problem with one of the tuners. I can still receive the problem channels if I am recording something, which suggests to me that one...

      Failed Recordings

      Factory reset did the trick! Back onto sorting out the reception problem.

      Failing tuner?

      I think I'm back to my original prognosis - one of the tuners is failing. I've just tried playing BBC News HD while recording another channel (unsuccessfully) and it works fine with my original and new aerial.

      Failing tuner?

      Actually Argos might be a better option as I can pick one up tomorrow. https://www.argos.co.uk/search/tv-aerial/category:33028861/aerial-type:outdoor-aerials/ Also, should mention that the TV tuner seems to work fine with the new aerial. With the failed recordings issue I mentioned in thread I...

      Failing tuner?

      New aerial actually slightly worse than existing one! Frequency 470-790. Forward gain 13dBi. Is it worth trying another one? Can you saend me an Amazon link to one that might work better?

      Failed Recordings

      Plenty of disc space. I won't do a factory reset until I've tried my new aerial out (in thread below this), I need to keep the existing tuneings to judge if its working or not.

      Failed Recordings

      I’ve just noticed that over the last few days all of my recordings have failed, despite the red recording light being on for the duration of the record. With series records, the files show up in the directory as 0K, with one offs or live recording, there is no programme file. Any ideas what’s...

      Failing tuner?

      Thanks both. I've ordered the Tri Star, should arrive tomorrow and should have some time on Friday to try installing it. I'll be aiming for Ridge Hill. I only mentioned Mendip in case that would be a better option for, but sounds like Ridge Hill is the way to go. I've noticed that the...

      Failing tuner?

      Looking at the location of the other transmitters, as the new aerial will be on the side of the building, not the roof, the only other transmitter mentioned here that it would have clear sight of is Mendip. Will the Tri Star aerial do the job? It's the only one that I can get delivered...

      OP here, been away for a while, but keen to sort this out before Christmas if possible.

Rather than call out an aerial installer (which would be...
