Default Digihome PVR 160 more problems

Having updated the software on my Digihome PVR 160 and got all the
channels, I find that I can't instant record now. Although I have
rescanned and the channels are coming over well from the correct
transmitter I get the message "Unable to record x: Signal too weak"

Has anyone seen this before or is it a glitch of my OS upgrade, please

TIA

Vigman

It wasn't a problem before, but I realised I has a scart connection
from the PVR to the TV and also the RF out from the PVR to the TV.
Unplugging this RF lead allowed me to record!

I've tested channel strengths and they are all very good, but with
instant recording or timeshifting, I just get weak signal failure
error messages???

Any ideas??
