hel: Sounds like there is some electrical interference, perhaps a timed appliance somewhere. Do you have storage radiators that run at night (on Economy 7)? See here:
Single frequency interference | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice
I would get a battery powered AM radio as it may be audible on there and move around to see if I can find what direction it is coming from.
It might be worth switching between the different wavebands on the radio (one with Short Wave, Medium Wave, Long Wave and FM gives you the most choice) to see which it is clearest on.
As it happens at a particular time, you might have the radio on tune to a frequency that you know that the noise appears on. If the noise starts at the same moment as your TV signal goes, then you know you are listening to the cause.
Once you have the noise on your radio, if you can, switch off all electrical appliances in your house at the time of the interference. Preferably this would be by switching off the main incoming supply at the distribution board/fuse box. That way there can be no little things you have forgotten about.
Go outside with the radio. See what direction it gets stronger in and where it is weaker so as to try and work out where it's coming from.

mr eric townsley: If its the Nottingham transmitter you receive your signal from and not Waltham, then you will require to use manual tuning of the channels required as the same thing may happen again, so scrub channels already stored either by carrying out a re-scan without the aerial being connected or more reliably a factory re-set (maybe called default setting or first time installation) then after having re-connected the aerial again go into the TV's tuning menu / manual tune and enter Mux Ch27(BBC) pressing search (or scan) then store channels received, repeat the procedure but this time enter Mux C24(ITV).
Once BBC and ITV is stored use the update channels facility (or whatever is called on your set) to recover the remaining multiplexes.

Hi I live about three miles from the Nottingham transmitter - why have I lost my picture over the weekend - rolling and breaking up - and when tried to retune the freeview machine I have only picked up the signal from East Yorks and Lincs and West Midlands not East Midlands. Any ideas please - this is an intermittent problem and was fine up until Saturday morning. Any help greatfully received
