Many thanks, I will do that. I may be wrong but I seem to recall signal strength at the time popping around from 0 to 40/50 back again etc. What is the likely outcome in that scenario?

JB,
Reared its head again last night. It wobbled from 40-50, flashing very briefly to 80, then fell to 0 and stayed 0-10 for quite some time. When I tried BBCA again later, the quality was staying at 70-80. So, when it interference starts it is all over the place, but then stays static until the interference ends.
So a signal booster thingy is worth trying.
What I don't understand is that the in-laws next door have an indoor aerial pointing in the same direction and they never have a problem. We never had a problem until the final switchover date. And Dover is now massively more powerful!!!

Irritating? Never had Freeview problems pre switchover. No probs 1st retune. Now after 2nd retune BBCA keeps dropping out on me. Several times in the first few days, now weeks apart, but BBC is my main view! I can delete channels, manually retune to another transmitter, and get the channels back, or wait and eventually the "no or bad signal" disappears and the channels return. I'm pointing at Dover, but I can pick up channels on Heathfield no problem.
What causes these intermittent break ups? Clear line of sight as far as I know. Could there be (very) local interference?
