Over the past few weeks I have periodically had a problem with the picture breaking up and/or freezing on the BBC programmes. It can be very bad for a few hours and then suddenly okay. It happens on both televisions and whether I am viewing through the set top boxes or directly through the antenna. At the moment it is very bad and I am unable to watch any of the BBC channels. I have a booster in the attic which I have checked to make sure everything is plugged in okay. Could it be the weather or do you think I need to get an aerial company in to check everything? Many thanks for any help.

Thanks for replying Mark. I tried bypassing the booster but it still didn't work and the problem was just getting worse. Luckily I found the invoice from when I had the new aerial and cabling installed in the two bedrooms three years ago and it said it had a 7 year warranty, which I hadn't realised, so I rang the company. They came out the next morning and checked the booster, including swapping it, and the settings on the TV in case the signal booster on there was causing a problem, but everything seemed okay so they changed the aerial. Touch wood, everything now seems to be okay, so one faulty aerial replaced and it didn't cost me anything. The company is very good and I would recommend them to anyone in the Leicester area.
