Our diagnostic tool will take you on a step-by-step journey looking for current faultsÌęand offer appropriate guidance as required. It incorporates both the Transmitter Checker tool and current Works & Warnings. If, after following the advice given, you still have reception problems, you will need to answer someÌęquestions. The answers, along with all the information in the journey, will be collated and sent to our Reception Advice team to see whetherÌęthere is any additional advice our experts can give.

If so, you will be given the option to have your information sent to the Radio and Television Investigation Service (RTIS).ÌęThe RTIS is managed and operated by the ±«Óătv and has a different remit from the Reception Advice service. RTIS dealsÌęwith both ±«Óătv and commercial domestic TV and radio services. For more information visit theÌę
