Midhurst problems?

Since about 20:00 I've been struggling with reception from Midhurst on some muxes. BBC A came back briefly a few minutes ago, And is back now. SDN was weak but looks okay now. D3&4 and Arquiva B have been good when I've tried them. Same observations on both tuners that I have: PVR and TV.

Anyone else seeing this? Engineering info on ukfree shows no problems.

The "official" site for engineering work announcements is here

http://www.digitaluk.co.uk/how_do_i_...ineering_works

and that too shows no planned or emergency works.

There's another thread running with similar reported problems, at the same time, from Hannington. Might have been co-channel problems brought on by the weather, or, seeing as Midhurst and Hannington are in the same region, a glitch with the centrallised mux coding.

I didn't notice any problems yesterday evening, receiving Midhurst at Cranleigh. IIRC, at various times I was watching BBC 2 and Sky Sports 1 (the latter courtesy of TUTV). If the problem was caused by co-channel interference, I suppose that I might be farther away from the interfering transmitter or it might be screened here by the local topography.
