It is more than likely a reception issue. The signal could be too strong, as to why it just happened? I am not too sure.

Have you tried rescanning for channels? It seems strange that only TV2 would have an issue. TV1, TVNZ6, TVNZ7 and Sport Extra are all on the same MUX so if it was a reception issue you should lose all of them as well.

Rang DSE Support this am.
Suggested try a system restore-which did another automatic scan afterwards.
Well this worked.
All good to go now.
