Chris Williams:
Irrespective whose aerial it is, Preseli has been on Planned Engineering and therefore may be on reduced power or using the Reserve Antenna (lower down the mast) so signal to you may not be as good. If the aerial is pointing at Preseli, you wont' get a very good signal from Pembroke Dock as it's a very low power relay (10W) and is the opposite direction to Preseli.
The predicted reception from Pembroke Dock for that postcode is not that good anyway.
Predicted reception from Preseli of the COM multiplexes, one of which carries Sky Arts, is not as good as the main channels BBC/ITV/C4/C5 etc. So the Planned Engineering is probably the reason for the current problem.
Having said that, the postcode should have been sent Postcards from Restore TV about possible interference from a new/upgraded mobile phone mast.
See https://restoretv.uk/postcards-not-sure/
If it's her own aerial rather than a communal one, she could get a free filter. If it's a communal aerial then whoever is responsible for the system has to pay an installer for a Filter IF one is needed.
