If the problem is down to the lowish signal strength then maybe I can live with it until switchover ? When will this happen in my area ?
Many thanks for your advice

I appreciate that outside is best but I am reluctant to go that way because of a fairly minor irritation. As I say the breakup seems to happen when a vehicle is passing but only on HD so I wonder if a different ariel or some sort of screen might sort it. The ariel I have looks like a class 2 at the top of this page.
Thanks again allan

My freeview reception has hitherto been excellent as I live in direct line with the Emley moor mast. i just bought a HD/PVR and though HD is good I am getting the occasional breakup of picture/momentaty loss
of reception. This seems to coincide with traffic passing on the nearby road.
With a loft ariel I can get no more than 36% signal strength whilst signal quality is in the order of 80-90%. Will a amplifier help ? do I need a better ariel? Will the signal be stronger after switchover?
