Manually adding ITV HD Tyne TEES to my chanel list

Daniel Morgan

Hi, how can I manually add ITV HD Tyne TEES to my channel list, TVH picks up ITV HD from Liverpool, so all the news reports are from Liverpool and surrounding places. We are in the northeast of England and our local is Tyne Tees.

I found this but don't know if it's any help or if it's relevant at all ha.

Thanks

Are you using Bouquets? If so you probably need to switch to the one for your area - "England HD: NE & C/Tyne Tees N" or "England HD: NE & C/Tyne Tees S" look possible, though there are several others and I'm not sure what the differences are.

davep hi thank you for your quick reply! I'm really sorry I'm not sure what you mean by bouquets? If you could explain what this is I can answer your question as best as possible, the setup has been built for a while and forgot the process of setting it up. Thanks

A Bouquet is a selection of channels, used on satellite TV to give users the correct choice of programming for their geographical area.

Look at Configuration -> Channel/EPG -> Bouquets. Is the 'Enabled' box ticked on any of the entries?

davep AHH thank you! So i use terrestrial Arial not satellite, but it looks to be enabled. I've took some screenshots of my tuner settings. Hope this helps

Ah OK you're on terrestrial. I can't work out from the frequencies which transmitter you're receiving from, but you can only receive the single ITV region broadcast by your transmitter.

davep that's what I thought, but we didn't notice until the news when it was west midlands.

There're maps of all TV transmitters at https://www.ofcom.org.uk/tv-radio-and-on-demand/coverage-and-transmitters/tv-transmitter-maps/ You haven't said exactly where you are, so we can't help much further, but you need to look up where you are in relation to the Tyne Tees transmitters and check what direction your aerial is pointing in and that it's correct. You should also check that the type of aerial you have is correct if you're receiving from the wrong transmitter. Other links that might be useful include:

When you know where you are and which transmitter you think you should be receiving from a local aerial installer may be able to help you to set it up right.
