Tried a retune of the set top box?

There's been known issues with Prime on a Freeview which should now be resolved...

Check out my LPFM Radio Station at www.thecheese.co.nz - Now on iHeart Radio, TuneIn and Radio Garden

retune did nothing to prime but did re-number the media works channels in a more logical manner.

Today I have also noticed Prime to have very distorted audio with loud static.
I have retuned my Sony W900A, Sony TV in bedroom (small internal aerial) and my 3 tuners in my PC - running Media Center, all with the same result. It was fine last week. All other channels are fine.
I wonder what's going on?

Nothing wrong with their sound here in Auckland on my PC.

I forgot to say - I'm in Palmy.
I'll talk to my mate who lives down the road and see if he's having same problem.

This is weird -
Ran another re-tune of Media Center and Prime sound is back. I checked the bedroom and the lounge and all OK .
Just the odd drop out (pixilation) with video.
I guess it was a temporary glitch up at Wharite.
