    My tv just went blank at 10:30. Says No Signal on the screen. Have one tv that works off a roof aerial, another an indoor aerial. Both went off air at same time. I get reception from channels 24 and 21. Wondering if there are issues with transmitters after the stormy weekend? No information on the saorview website.

    You may be able to answer this, has the new building and ESB sub-station construction work been completed there yet?

    New transmitter building is complete with nearly all the equipment moved in there at this stage. This move has taken nearly a year. A lot of stuff, and not just RTE/2rn either. The old building will be demolished next.

    Substation is built with the changeover occurring this week. That's the reason for the outage Tuesday and Friday.
