Waltham (Leicestershire, England) Full Freeview transmitterMonday 17 October 2011 12:43PM

My postcodeis NG2 7df and get my signal from the Waltham transmitter. Since switchover I have struggled to get quality non-HD BBC channels on either my set top box ( an old Inverto ) or my new Panasonic HD TV. Looking at signal strength on both bits of hardware I see very variable signal quality for everything on CH61 ( sometimes its 10/10 and others its appalling ) but consistent good quality for all other channels. I have an old non high gain aerial and live on the edge of the transmission area.I am at a loss after reading all hints on the site to work out what the issue might be.ANy sensible explanation gratefully received
I've rung a local installer who suggests using Nottingham instead but the signal strengths look much lower, will that work ?
