Can anyone assist please. Is it possible that a specific mux may be more susceptible to atmospheric interference over another. Had problems with some HD channels and on Saturday it was particularly bad with picture break up. Now all fine again! Could it be a faulty tv? Im about to contact John Lewis.

MikeB: Thanks for your response. My post code is CB25 nr Newmarket and I pick up signal from Sandy Heath. I've changed all the cables and the problems started last month. I connected another tv (same make but smaller screen) and no problems. That's why I'm starting to think it may be the tv. I have an internal ariel and signal strength is at 90% and 100% signal quality. All my other tv's are ok. Thanks.

MikeB: Thanks MikeB. My post code is CB25 0PA and the tv is Samsung. Bought a attenuator and all ok for now. Find it hard to believe i have high signal considering distance and internal aerial. I do have a booster however which acts as a distribution box. Thanks for your assistance. By the way Maplins don't sell too many out of Cambridge shop which suggests strong signal not an issue in the area.

MikeB: Still having break up on Channel 4 hd. What i have noticed is that signal strength fluctuates unlike the channels which are ok. Could it be the tv?

After a couple of months of good reception on HD channels, this week I'm yet again getting picture break up. Sandy Heath transmitter is stated as having possible weak signal. I wish they were more specifc. Surely they know if it's weak or not.

My reception on the mux carrying BBC1 HD channel has been up and down like a yo yo for two weeks. Other channels are fine. I assume it must be linked to the reduced power message. Lost the same channels last time Sandy Heath status was "possible reduced power"

MikeB: Thanks. All appears ok since "possible reduced power" has been taken off Sandy Heath status.
