Unable to get free to air channels via antenna

Hi, I've got a Sony Bravia TV (KDL-40BX450) I'd been using an antenna to get the local free to air channels. I had to disconnect and move the TV for maintenance work. I then set everything back up as before but I couldn't get any channels back. I rescanned for channels and it came up with nothing. I bought a new antenna as I thought I may have damaged the old one whilst moving it, but again no luck. When I hit the input button on my TV I'm unable to highlight the TV icon but the HDMI 1 & 2 are there for me to select.

Does anyone have any advice?

I know it's an older TV but I kind of like it !!!

Thanks

Hi @suellio68

Just checking that you are scanning Digital channels and not Analogue channels.
