Triax Multi Channel Receiver - Where the hell has the UK channels gone?

Since January we've not been able to get the British channels, can get BBC4 which is not on, I've tried to manually tune the channels but no joy, we can only get the Irish stuff.

If the UK channels are coming from a satellite dish, it's probably lost its alignment. Could be pretty obviously hanging off the wall, or might just be slight.

Irish stuff indicates terrestrial. But more information needed, e.g. were they getting UK stuff from Freeview terrestrial transmitters in Northern Ireland or Wales?

we lost our UK channnels in February as well and our Saorview channels here in Meath. i've tried retuning loads of times but no joy on any channels. Aside from buying a whole new aerial not sure what to do.
