loss of BBC radio 1 , radio 2 , radio 3, radio 4 and BBC radio 5 channels from Sky freeview box

[mjohnc1]

I live in scotland and cannot receive FM or DAB radio signals so I have relied on old Thomson and Grundig boxes ( with Freeview cards) for radio reception only . Until today I could receive all normal channels but I now cannot receive standard BBC R1,R2,R3,R4 and Radio 5 channels.  I have removed/ replaced cards and find I can only receive various other channels eg. BBC radioscotland 0116, 0106 Classical radio and many others including heart, LBCX, BBc radio wales0117, Capital Xtra 0114 etc. 

I do not hold a current Sky subscription ( I use Freesat on Freesat TVs for viewing but rely on these old Sky freesat boxes for separate radio reception.

I have changed address some 6 years ago when I held my original Sky subscription/account but have had no problems in using my relocated sky boxes since that time in receiving all radio channels. Do I need to reset my boxes /cards by reattaching to a tv monitor or has Sky removed these BBC radio channels from their listings. 

Txs in anticipation of a solution .

@mjohnc1  BBC have essentially switch off all SD & Radio services using DVB-S, BBC station have migrated to DVB-S2, if your boxes are SD only then you won't be able to get them unless you get a box capable of HD (DVB-S2)

I have lost all my BBC Radio stations on Sky Q as of Monday. If I tune into 0102 it says No Signal is being broadcast on this channel.  All other TV and Radio is working fine.

@Pete+Tobin  Have you tried arebbot as all Radio & BBC HD regions will be available on Sky Q

Thanks, I did a software update and the channels came back.

I was having no problems on Sky Q with R3 but in another house I have Freesat using their 4K box so certainly capable of HD reception. Getting nothing on BBC R3 says no signal received. Mind you R3 has also died via the internet today.
