Tv Signal

Anybody having trouble with free to air bbc , ITV signals at the moment

Yes we are in Dona Pepa area and are having bad reception - no signal on and off today.

Yes we are in the afternoon ITV

One of the technicians advised me that there has been a lot of solar flare activity and this is the cause.

I've been trying to find some further resource information, but as of yet not been able to find more info. Will post up if I do - sod's law, the technician reckons he saw it on the internet, but can't find the webpage

Edit - possibly this. https://www.express.co.uk/news/science/1133428/weather-forecast-space-news-solar-storm-2019-northern-lights-earth-weather-latest-update

Only thing can suggest at the moment is reviewing all the regional variations, as both BBC & ITV have different frequencies on different regions - some perform better than others.

On a quick test, I noted that many of the low and mid horizontal BBC/ITV frequencies were unusually weak, but most of the vertical frequencies are stronger.
