    I assume apart from the brief reappearance at the end of May, Com7 is still MIA for everyone else who was experiencing this problem and not just me?

    Yes, COM7 is still missing for me. I check Chan 32 every week or so but no sign of a signal.

    It does seem to have gone for the long term, but it's strange it could be 60-65% signal strength one day and then gone again.

    Yes still missing for me and I also check every week or so. All this seemed to coincide with the arrival of Spike.

    Not sure if this is related but prior to COM7 going down I had very poor reception on SKY News which was often unwatchable. Since loosing COM7, reception of this station has been greatly improved and I always get a decent enough signal.

    A few weeks back there was a message or two which indicated that "Humax Towers" were interested. I take it they are not really bothered.

    All the COM7 TV channels have disappeared (a couple of months ago) from our Samsung TV in London (Crystal Palace tx).

    There are lots of threads on TV forums about this general topic and I gather it is a combination of a low powered MUX combined with possible aerial/coax problems which result in the signal for this MUX being too low for many receivers.

    Is there any evidence that the problem is any worse on Humax receivers than other manufacturer's? If not, it doesn't look as if the problem will go away all by itself.

    My COM 7 channel is there but when I tune to a station served by it, it can take a few moments for the signal strength to register and the station to appear. During this time it says no signal.

    Yes. COM8 reception has been perfect for me since it launched.
