Despite having a 4 metre dish I'm having problems receiving ITV the signal is scrambled, keeps breaking up, all other channels appear ok.

Anyone having the same problem or got a solution.

Cheers

I think you need a visit for some adjustments to lnb.We sometimes lost channel 4 but got Acip to visit and sort out the problem.

If you have a working SKY card try adding this channel



freq 12402



no need to change the other values, search, you'll find ITV Central...



If you have and HD unit ITV HD is strong.. If BBC 1 works ... it will

Hi Rigsby



re msg 2

>>I think you need a visit for some adjustments to lnb.We sometimes lost channel 4 but got Acip to visit and sort out the problem.<<



As ITV is a 'smidge' away from the settings for BBC 1 ( which appears to be working ) I would love to know how the problem was resolved ..



Hope that blakey1627 will revert and let us know what was wrong

Mark, The problem was because the lnb brackets used to bend with the heat.Channel 4 was the one most affected in the afternoon heat.I know other people who had the same problem.
