Hi can i get some help from the aerial riggers on this site. I have just come back from a recall i fitted an lp45 log periodic aerial down to a class a splitter in the front room short lead and a run to back room signal strength on all multiplexs is 70 to 77 dbuv after the splitter ( not amplifer) the problem is the picture is breaking up very bad on the samsung own signal strength it is going to 10 on the quality it should be 0. Have changed the aerial to a sr12 yagi type aerial this seems to have cured the problem. What i want to know is what could be causing the problem . Other information no trees in the way and i can see winter hill from the roof cable changed when the job was done last week, any help would go down great .

Clive the only reason to do it with an octi lnb is cost to use a multi switch amp to run to the 4 receivers could cost anything upto £1000 i think what was done was a lot cheaper

Paul first unplug the aerial and then do an auto tune to get rid of all the channels. Then do a manual tune using the channel numbers 54, 55, 58, 59, 61, 62. After this has beem done switch off the auto update so you dont get the message telling you there are new channels. Hope this helps

Tina is the tv conected to an external aerial or an indoor aerial , if it is an external aerial you should have it checked if it is an internal aerial try getting an external aerial.
