Default Freeview Question

I am currently at my friends house Dog sitting her Rotweiler, while she goes and has a night of rumpy pumpy with her fella!

But, her freeview for some reason doesnt have ITV or Channel 4!!!

Any ideas why??

some have lost some channels down here due to the change over to digital,

you may need a simple re scan?

if you're in suffolk, it's because they're not transmitted in that region my brother switched to freesat instead

Freeview is shit. We can't get half the channels up here and the ones we can are dodgy.

I don't get half the channels. It's because the signal is so useless round here.....

I don't get BBC1,2,3 Channel 5 and loads more

till there is a storm

thing is its all going to go digital soon. but when it was windy or storm you had a bit of a flicker with the old school tv but was still watchable.... when you have a storm or its windy with digital you get fuck all picture and multiple dots/squares and something that sounds like a love child of R2D2 and skippy the kangaroo
