@Briantist - thanks for the pointer, but I'm not sure that my washing machine or mobile 'phone is responsible for affecting an area of perhaps tens or hundreds of square miles, let alone for a couple of hours at a time... there's clearly an unpublished transmitter issue or a more widespread EMF interference issue if the reports I'm seeing are all true.
I was merely pointing it out for the benefit of other people in case other folks are scratching their heads at a sudden fault on these channels. It may be relevant.

Seems to be a widespread issue on MUX2 (ITV1, C4 et al), Ridge Hill transmitter, mostly daytime/early evening and then settles down. Loss of quality, not strength - 2 decoders here fail to pull anything, the third works but with intermittent pixellation.
It's not an issue on anyone's particular installation since it spreads across Worcestershire (where I am) into Gloucestershire (where the poster above is) and affects other people I know. No work is reported that I can see, but there's clearly something afoot... I presume DSO-related but simply not being mentioned?
