I'm new to Freeview, and today lost ITV freeview channels.
My aerial is pointing at Chesterfield (3KM away) and until today scanned all
the channels OK.
Some 'fun' with my BT Vision box gave me to re-scan and I couldn't pick up
what I think may be Multiplex 2 channels.
Where can I look to find if there are any transmission problems which may be
the answer to this issue?

thanks
dfrog

You'll lose more soon as SKY are pulling their channels off.

I was thinking the same myself.

Re-scanned today and recovered the missing ones.
I don't understand why this should happen (don't forget- new to Freeview and
on lower part of learning curve).
With regard to Sky, well, I've not been seeing them (new to Freeview), so I
suppose I'll not miss them.
Maybe sad for those that care for them.
