My roof aerial is set on Fenton, up until April 20th everthing was fine, but since then channel's 3,4 & 5 and their derivatives suffer from break up at times. I have re-tuned several times and done a factory reset but to no avail. Do I now need to get the aerial reset to Sutton Coldfield?

Thankyou for that Brian, Don't know if I am missing something here. I have a JVC VCR and a Sagemcom Freeview+ recorder connected, does the write up suggest that one of these may be my problem?
Thankyou in advance.
Paul
