we have a problem. Every year at this time we experience a fault which lasts for around six weeks. At 9pm (plus or minus half an hour) we start to lose Freeviewchannels, most usually Dave, Yesterday and so on, but not the main broadcasters (BBC, ITV, C4, C5 and their sub-channels are all fine, as are the HD channels). The picture starts to pixelate, the sound breaks up and then the signal drops off a cliff for three or four minutes, then it just returns for ten to twenty minutes. This lasts for up to an hour.
We have no timers in the house, no central heating, very little tech at all near the TV. There is no street light outside and we have no near neighbours. Pos
If you could give me an idea of what's up and a possible remedy I'd be very pleased.
