I'm not very tech savvy and probably a bit thick, but I'm having problems with retuning my freeview box.

The picture has been breaking up, first of all on channel 5, then all the others, so I thought I would try retuning before Sept 30 because I understood you could do this prior to the changeover.

Well, after much kerfuffle with switching on/off unplugging of all cables, it eventually retuned itself, and all the channels are still breaking up.

Have I done it wrong, did I do it too soon, or is the freeview box b****ed?

any help or advice much appreciated...thanks:o

sounds like the signal is too weak.

this could be because you are not in a good area for digital TV and/or your ariel is not very good

No idea if the retune on the 30th will sort this out i'm afraid

No point in retuning before the 30th, you will need to retune on or after lunchtime on the 30th.

thanks for that...in the meantime, though, my freeview box isn't working at all now...:mad:
