    what box are you using / which way is your antenna pointing ?

    you can usually pick a channel / frequency of the nearest NI transmitter,

    I found something similar to this on a Walker saorview box.

    Day before switchover I did first scan - picked up irish + BBC channels.

    A couple of days later did an another auto scan as the freeview signal would have been stronger. Lost the BBC channels but gained UTV, C4, etc.

    On Walker there is a option to do a full install from scratch - which I did and that did the trick. Cleared existing channels and I got all the Irish + BBC + UTV, C4, C5, etc.

    Can you do a full install on your box?
