    Yep, just switched TV on, all channels gone. Think it has to do with saorview changing frequencies. I had an indoor aerial plugged into a smart TV, have nothing now in Castlebar area

    There was a frequency change some time ago with the old ones turned off last week. Rescan and you should be fine in most cases but some people need new aerials.

    No luck, it must be my indoor aerial can't pick up the new frequencies

    Westport area
    All channels down in daytime. A few back after dark. Rescan produced nothing. Some years since aerial first installed.
    Any recommendations pls

    Back working for me in Castlebar. Replaced the indoor aerial, still nothing. Am new to my current place, but strange set up with cables. I reconnected a satellite cable I had removed from the LNB on my satellite dish. I thought it was doing nothing but I'm getting a signal again. It's like the dish/lnb is acting as an external aerial giving me a signal..

    Back running fine again, try retuning if yours is still out. Cheers for the input folks.
