My problem started on the 8th of Feb and is still ongoing. Been in touch with the BBC and still waiting for them to get back to me (12 days). What happens is at 16.49pm everyday (including weekends) I get such bad pixelation that the TV is unwatchable on ALL freeview channels the problem finishes at 22.45pm every day 6hrs of prime time TV which we can't view! The rest of the time everything works perfectly. I have retuned, checked my equipment including the Ariel, there are also no problems with the local (Hastings) transmitter. My near neighbours are suffering the same inconvenience. In my view there must be an outside interference coming from somewhere at the set daily time but how can you find out and prove it and get something done about it?

Hi, it's not my boiler as I've turned it off and it makes NO difference plus how would my boiler affect my neighbours who live 200 yds away.

Hi Bri, also looked into that. the fact that the problem goes off at around 22.45pm and the street lights are still on at that time also it starts at 16.49pm before any of my street lights come on. i think i need a van to come round and see if they can locate the source that's what I'm hoping the BBC will do a bit like when they look for licence dodgers or pirate radio stations.
