failed recordings

I keep getting recordings that don't work. I can't see a pattern for any particular channel. I would say I'm about at an 80% failure rate. "failed" is the message I get. I was having to retune the channels two or three times a day, but I put in a single booster and this no longer happens - but "failed " is happening regularly. I'd be grateful for any help

Many thanks

Martin

    Go to Settings, Signal Quality and see what the settings are - Quality should be 100%, Strength similar. If you are not getting these numbers, that may be the problem.

    Try this for a few channels, HD and SD, and report back.
