Hi,
I'm at SG14 3RN and we point to Crystal Palace. We receive Freeview channels via original aerial - aerial and flylead at least 14 years old, booster in loft with newish CAT2 cable run from booster to TV sockets.. Picture was subject to breakup until the full switchover, improved when CAT2 and new booster installed and is excellent since power boosted on full digital switchover.
After the storm last week, the picture was initially perfect as ever but over this last weekend it has been subject to frequent break-up and virtually unwatchable at times, absolutely fine at others..This issue has been noted on both TV sets. I thought it must be a loose connection at aerial. But last night (Sunday) it was back to perfect (wind had completely dropped by the way). I just wanted to check if there had been any issues with Crystal Palace? And if its my set-up, what cable should I switch to for the flylead? Would a new aerial give me any benefits given we have been been perfectly happy before, and London guests comment what a brilliant picture it is?

Thanks
David
