ParticipantTrying to interpret your post
Looks like the channel UHF channels you need are
53 60 50 57 59 55 68
Remove the aerial from you box and do a auto tune. It should find no channels.
Replace the aerial
Then you use manual tune on all the above in turn. Trying DVB-T or T2 to confirm a signal. Scan and save the results in turn till you have checked them all.
make a note of strength and quality you get on each.

InactiveWolfbane seems to be way out of date, I think that all UHF channels above 55 are no longer in use.

The numbers came from the Freeview site
There does not seem to be anywhere that you can easily find accurate up to date details.

I did not get the numbers. The OP posted them from the link I posted to the Freeview-Home check site. I have no idea what the ops postcode is.

If you click the link in post #54, and enter your post code and house number you will confirm the details for your transmitter. There is also details of an additional Local Mux which you may be able to receive.

You should get the additional local mux DVB-T 22 the other one on 46 may be too weak. By all means look at the signal and post what it says.

They all look excellent.
Do you still get picture breakup on live TV and recordings ?
I take it you saved the results after scanning each mux in turn ?
