    i have now disconnected the booster box and only have the aerial cable from the wall going straight into the back of the Aura. Same as previous post - some channels not available including 261 racing tv which has always worked and bbc HD on 106.

    Please could you post signal strength and quality figures without the booster?

    https://www.freeview.co.uk/help/coverage-checker/detailed-view

    This suggests 29,31,37,41,44,47,55 are the channels you need to manually tune to. You previous post indicates that you are picking up additional signals from a second transmitter (possibly because of the amp).
    Put the aerial lead directly into the Humax, delete all the channels and do a full channel search and then report back.

    I put ypur postcode in the Freeview checker and it said there was planned work in progress and don't retune! Details of planned work is here:

    ok here goes

    one cable from wall to aura. No booster box.

    checked each of these via manual tune , then SAVE on next screen. Then repeat in this order below.

    41 str 70 qual 100 dvb-t
    44 str 74 qual 100 dvt-t
    29 str 82 qual 58 dvb-t
    37 str 74 qual 100 dvb-t
    31 str 78 qual 60 dvb-t

    47 str 62 qual 100 dvb-t2
    55 str 22 qual 0 dvb-t2

    22 str 92 qual 100 dvb-t

    i did notice that ch 106 bbc4hd is not in the guide list anymore

    racing tc ch 261 still showing "channel not available" and did a quick sample of the others reported.

    The predicted numbers which obviously assumed all the Mux were at full power showed apart from one local mux you only need a low gain log periodic which is a wideband design so when the transmitter returns to full power hopefully you should be sorted.
