Hi Guys and girls, new to this site and just registered.
Have a question - just bought a 50 inch plasma 2nd hand, screen looks good etc but all i have is the "no signal screen".
When i press the menu button i get offered the usual selections, i then scroll to tv but nothing happens and always ends in the no signal box.
aerial etc in the right place - any assistance would be awesome
cheers - cabbydave

Have you done the auto tuning?
Is it digital or analogue only?

What model is it?
Did you previously have a TV/tuner running freeview hooked up to the same aerial?
As trig42 says above - have you definitely gone into the digital tv tuning menu and tried the autotune?
Do you live in a freeview HD area?
