"That is VERY interesting Adam, I now know that my Gray-Hoverman was cut for slightly too high a frequency,
and have now designed some new active elements cut for 580 MHz instead of 610. I will make them up when I can get out to Silverdale for some…"

"Same dam issue. 1,2 and duke were working fine this afternoon. Now they have simply disappeared. If I try selecting 1 or 2 on the remote, it just goes to channel 3 instead. TVNZ channels simply do not exist any more. factory reset. No change at all.…"
"Well I went up on the roof yesterday PM with my signal strength meter. On the higher channels I get about 650 uV (unamplified) which gives me a good solid result. But on channel 29 (538 MHz) i get a much weaker signal, about 100 uV. The weird thing…"
"You haven’t told us what your signal strength meter says.
Is the TVNZ Mux different from the others,quality wise ?"

"Thanks Guys! Well it just gets weirder. We are talking about the UHF terrestrial signal here don't forget.
Went up on the roof this AM checked out the double extended Grove-Hoverman , all ok except a broken acrillic spacer on the top of the…"
"Ah. The joy of living in the fringes. As you have a UHF strength meter first thing I'd do is check the signal strength for each mux. Sounds like the TVNZ mux has dropped just below minimum reception level. Could be any number of reasons but the…"

"Hi Cliff,
I had the same with a Zinwell ZMX7500 Satellite STB after the Games finished
I don't know it this will work for you, but I found a copy of TV1 (labelled CH-12) on 600. After viewing that the other channels were…"
