Try at different times of the day.
Results of auto tune differ on all the kit we have lying around.
One on my TV's doesn't drop what it already has when rescanning which is handy.

I wish I could tune mine so that channel 5 didn't appear...
That said, I found Nuts TV on freeview the other night

I suspect there are different degrees of competence in the electronic design of these things.

I had a similar problem.
It is to do with the 'multiplex' that transmit the signals.
all the ITV's were top signal.
all the BBC's were tuliped.
something to do with interactive TV broadcasts on 64khz which needs loads of power and the supply at different times of the day.
The others are broadcast at 16khz need less power and travel further.
I reckon they are penny pinching on power and testing so the interactive gumpf works for Glastonbury - press red button for JAY-Z or green button for Amy WineOuse

Cable not available, don't want a satellite dish. I don't know what these other other products are so I'll need to look into them.
For now I just want to know why one freeview tuner has different behaviour from another.

Freeview problems
We have various TV's, some have add-on "digiboxes", these work OK apart from the odd "no signal" carp because we live in a tulipe reception area.
The problem is with our only expensive TV which has a built-in freeview thingy. When running the installation/set-up it just refuses to add the channels from UHF 32 (despite pausing at this channel when scanning) so that we have freeview channels 1,2.3.4.6,7, i.e. 5 and some others are missing. Any ideas?Tags: None
