I think this is a problem for Channel 5 to sort. I recall that their
licence agreement obliges them to fix *all* problems of this nature.
When North Thames Gas Board (British Gas) went from Town Gas to North Sea
Gas in the 1960/70's they had to fix all the cookers, gas fires, etc.
Anyone with a pre-war hob etc. got a brand spanking new one Gratis if the
fitters couldn't fix it.
I suspect the same applies to Channel 5 retuning.
ITC tell me that "Channel 5 must cone and visit and see if they are
causing the interference" and then cure the problem if it is.
