Nokia mediamaster

Hi im using a Nokia mediamaster 9850t. When i was subscribing to OnDigital i could get all the channels really well with the upgraded ariel. Now i can only receive the BBC channels ,i cant get ITV1,ITV2, CH4 and CH5 just a red dot . Nothing has changed and the ariel hasnt moved. I get my signal from the Dover (Hougham) transmitter. Anyone have the same problem

I have a Nokia 9850T and it often shows a red dot on the SDN channels. Make sure your aerial is plugged in right and perhpas move it around a little, if that fails i think it could be a new rooftop aerial you need or perhpas its damaged. Im sure its just the way you move your tv or somin happens to mine alot

I am using a nokia at my girlfriends house and it works fine on all channels! Do as above and try a full retune just in case they have moved the channels around since last time!

Checked ariel with meter ,strong signal. All cabling is new and i,ve reset and scanned all channels. I think its the Ashford area served by the Hougham transmitter that is the problem

"Ariel" is a biological washing powder!
I bet it works much better with an "aerial".

Hmm, I wonder what all those numbers mean!
Who has the oldest software?
FWIW my box works fine. :-)

Try changing the RF output frequency. It might be causing a conflict with initial reception.
