Hello
I am hoping someone can help me with my tv signal problems.
Over the last few months I have had very intermittent tv signal and in the past few weeks it has gone completely. I am a TalkTalk customer and use their YouView box. I have tried all of the following, to no avail:
1. Retune the YouView box, this finds internet channels only but no antenna channels, e.g. BBC, ITV, Channel 4 (the ones I want).
2. I tried updating the software on the YouView box. This did nothing.
3. I tried bypassing the Youview box and connected the aerial cable directly into the tv which has built in freeview. I get a signal strength that jumps between 0 and 100 and a very pixelated image.
4. I tried a new aerial cable. This did nothing.
5. I tried moving the tv to a second aerial socket in the house. Signal strength was even worse.
6. I spoke to my neighbours. We live in a flat sharing the same aerial. Nobody else has any problems.
7. I tried connecting a borrowed tv. This did nothing.
8. Lastly, out of desperation, I called TalkTalk. I was only told to turn my YouView box off and on again, retune, etc. Knew it would be a waste of time. They said they would send an engineer but I don't see what it will achieve as it does not appear to be a problem with their box.
I am out of ideas. Would be very happy if someone has any suggestions.
Thank you.
