    hi inactive

    i presumed it wasnt my tv aerial as im still getting normal channels with no probs

    I would try to borrow a known working freeview receiver before splashing out.

    Analogue TV ( normal channels ) may still work on a very weak signal, digital Freeview ones will not.

  • I have a Daewoo DS608p and lost my signal due to the transmission change.
    When I contacted the manufacturer they told me that I would need to buy another set-top box, as mine is now obsolete. I was not offered a replacement and will not be buying any other Daewoo products.:mad:
