Channel 4 HD

This channel says there is a problem with the satellite signal. Only this channel. Channel 4 and 4+ are ok. Any ideas please.

@Cath96 Have you tried rebooting your main Q box ie
putting your box into Standby then switching it off at the wall for 30 seconds
switch it back on then follow the on screen instructions

No I haven't as yet.  I did what was suggested with the ?, but to no avail.  I'll try this (have done many times in the past), but we have moved house and only been installed 4 weeks and felt it was a bit soon to be having problems being as all the other HD channels are fine I am at a loss.

Do you know which ITV region you are in? (London, Granada, etc). This will help work out which version of Channel 4 you are receiving as there are a few different regions. Chances are you are missing some other channels that are broadcast on the same frequency, but just haven't noticed yet.

We are in Bristol, so South West. All the other HD channels are fine.

Channel 4 South HD is broadcast on the same frequency as:

 

Alibi HD (109)

Gold HD (110)

Nickelodeon HD (604)

 

Are those channels working?

It sounds like your satellite dish is slightly out of alignment probably due to recent windy weather. See this link

You may end up having to arrange an engineer visit.

Re: Channel 4 HD

Yes I think an engineer visit will be required now as we know the whole frequency is affected.

I've done all suggested. I don't believe the dish has moved. Booked an engineer visit, so fingers crossed. Thank you.
