Pesky thing is that when I select a favourite it might pick an "empty" version of the station but when I select stations sequentially I can find a working one.
Do you have more than one GO! with one inoperative?
I haven't tried Andrew's solution (previous post).

You might do best to do a full scan and replace everything. I noticed I had to rescan ATN6 several times as they seem to "tweek" it and I lose the audio.

I have a VHF band III antenna (needs replacing with a III+VI+V - cockatoos use it as a trampolene) pointed at the Sydney towers and a UHF band VI+V pointed at the Illawarra towers at Knights Hill.

I get ATN6, TCN8, TEN11 and ABC12 and the analog versions (except ABN2 which is in band I) from Sydney. I need the UHF replacement to get TSN31 (only available on analog) and SBS34.

I get WIN36, CTC37, CBN38, ABWN51, and SBS54 from Illawarra.

Where I have duplicates, I tend to sort them so the one with the better signal is first. That is the one that pressing the channel button finds. While they are all networked, the Illawarra stations sometimes have different programming, so I don't delete any.
