does anyone know where the engineering will be completed by or is it taking so long for com8 to be added ?

Jill Kynaston at around 4:00pm there was an issue which i notice whiles watching bbc1 hd just wondering if this has anything to do with your issue aswell ? also around that time the signal did drop and come back but only at half the strength it seems and still is for me. btw i normally get around level: 98%, quailty: 71% but it seems over the pass month with nothing changed at all, that am seeing more and more problems yet no understanding why this is :( am guessing its due to works being done for com8 ?

am still having some issues with my freeview hd which is connected to a indoor aerial in the loft which i've been using well over 2 years now with little to no issues at all. i have redone the connections to ensure that wasn't the issue which it wasn't :(
i did notice on a day when it was bad that i was able to watch a channel and monitor the other tuner for for signal issues which did happen. the odd part is the strength doesn't change at all but the quality does from the avg ~72% down to ~45%
i've not had some many issues in such a short amount of time as i've been using freeview hd for well over 2 years with little to no issues at all.... untill the past 2 months which is when it became alot more worth.

here's a picture for more details

Betamax_man: nope everything is the same as it has been for well over 2 years and due to it being "random" it sure makes it harder to work out what is causing it but i will have to agree there must be some kind of interference that is happen and as to why it happening now (for the past ~3months) am not sure as there is few days i can go without a single issue and then it can be really bad like you have seen in the image. i do know it can act much worst when the weather is quite bad but its never been a issue at all until lately, also any suggestions as to what i could try and do as the aerial itself isn't easy to get to and is pain due to where its placed :/

right it seems i might have some more news which should help alot more i hope :o
both myself and both my parents was recording father brown and i noticed a glitch ( around 9mins 22 secs in where the guy is walking to his green car)
so i checked it on both of my parents youview boxes and its the same with the glitch aswell. for me i am using a aerial in the loft and both my parents are using the outdoor aerial on the roof so this does seem to confirm there is some kind of interference is going on, so what can i do to stop it from happening? any suggestions ?

many thanks adrian

David Parker so your saying if i get a attenuator it should remove the interference i am getting ?

David Parker thanks for the reply but i do also wonder if a high pass tvi filter with braid breaker would be better than having a attenuator due to me only having this issue for close to 3 months now, yet i've never had so many issues like this before in the past :/

both myself and my parents are tuned to emley moor as this is the only transmitter we can get with the best signal also the glitches i get is on both of the hd mux (634mhz and 562mhz) am guessing these glitches will also happen to the sd channels aswell. i've always been tuned to emley moor as i can't even pick any other transmitters up. i am abit clueless as what to do next to remove/reduce the interference i am getting :/ a tvi filter is "This high pass filter is designed to reject aerial-borne interference. It connects straight to the back of your TV or video recorder in line with your antenna to stop those unwanted signals."

i'm not sure if this issue is just me or not but the past two days i've been getting random glitching just on PSB3 (main hd channels)
where it would glitch quite badly or even drop out yet for a few seconds and at the same time i would normally be recording from COM7 (other hd mux)or PSB1 (sd channels) and they wouldn't have the same issue which i do find is quite odd.
yesterday it happened between 9:40pm to 10:10pm (16/12) and to it seems to of happen just before 10pm and again around 10:30pm (17/12)
is anyone else able to confirm this please?
