Dave-G Posted December 9 Report Share Posted December 9 I suspect its your antenna - mine sometimes struggles with two TV's, I know it wont feed a third. Years ago in the 405 days it weren't an issue, I guess the signal strength has been knocked back to reduce interfering with other devices but I'm sure others on here will know more about it.

JohnfromUK Posted December 10 Report Share Posted December 10 Guess, but if the weather has been windy (as it has over most of the country) - your antenna may have been blown round (i.e. now pointing wrong way) - or antenna or it's cable may have got damaged.
