Guys, have a question about digital TV in Brisbane.. we moved a room around tonight and moved the TV and plugged the aerial into a point on the other side of the room. We have points all through the house not overly sure what is what but in the new point i can still get every channel except all of the Channel 7 channels, ie 7, 7mate etc.

Can anyone shed and light for me....

Most likely (by far) a poor termination somewhere along the line. After that it's possibly damaged cable, interference (ie. induction from 240V power) or poor earthing. The first thing I'd be doing is looking at the termination for that point. Give the cable a decent tug from the back of the connector. If it moves, it's poorly crimped/screwed. The cable probably runs back to a splitter somewhere. Check the terminations there too. There's a huge number of reasons it could be doing this. If you still have issues, let us know.
