    Just turned on my receiver to watch Champions League over DTT and I'm getting no signal :( Is anyone else experiencing problems with the Spur Hill transmitter at the moment?

    Yep, turned on my HD200 yesterday and it was saying no signal for the terrestrial channels. Did a new search and found the channels again under a different frequency. Cant remember what it was but its less than the 666mhz of before. I feared it was the end of the "trial" until i found the channels again!:)

    It was odd. I did another terrestrial search again and i'm getting the 4 channels on 475mhz and on 666mhz. The signal quality according to the mvision is rating at 66% on the 475mhz signal, but 80% on the 666mhz so i switched back to that again:p

    The 475 (actually 474) is from Mullaghanish whilst 666 is Spur Hill


    BTW as an aside RTE 1 and 2 analogue from Mullaghanish were off yesterday until 6PM

    Handy though, I find the DTT has been missing on a few occasions, champions league games, and one of the Irish rugby games. My wideband aerial only seems to get about 40% signal on 474mhz, tempted to move it around but dont want to lose the lot either :)
