Lost Digital Radio Stations

Options
Hi,

I moved last week (30 miles) and when I retuned my digital radio lost most of the stations, including all the BBC ones. How can I improve this?

If it helps I'm near Weston Super Mare.

    Move back;)

    Check what you should have here, map appears to show strong signal availability

    When you say retuned have you just tried to select the previously stored stations or done a complete retune?

    DAB signal drops off a cliff if you stray out of defined broadcast areas.

    Have you tried it different parts of the house?

    Have you extended the aerial fully?

    Can you still get FM OK?

    Ha ha.

    I tried the same stations and they wouldn't play and the retune gave me very few stations.

    I get a perfect FM Radio2 in the bedroom, but haven't tried moving the digital radio yet. Will do.
