Kathleen: There are a number of reasons that cause your type of problem but the two main ones are broken coax if the cable comes straight from the aerial to the tv have a look at the aerial plug for rust or water the other cause can be an amplifier picking up the interferance this can be harder to solve this needs a full check on your system hope this helps

Gary: the amp you are talking about are a peice of junk only fitted by sparks, diy's , or cowboys this could be your problem. Try changing the amp or call out a aerial rigger who can check the signal with a proper meter not just the tv signal strength checker.

NICK ADSL UK: just giving a price can be hard work. Today i gave a price to a customer( free ) there aerial was ok but the bracket and mast and coax needed changing, they also wanted there sky going too 4 extra rooms with a magic eye and remote in one. This involved a 4 way compact amp, 6 coax leads, mast, bracket, lashings, magic eye and sky + remote not a small job i quoted £228 and what i got was more or less how much! a simple question to all rigers out there am i under charging overcharging or just right ps i am in the mersyside north wesr region

c keenan: Simple question do you switch off the tv downstairs at the mains at night if you do you could be switching something else off like the power suply to your amplifier look for a white box that plugs into the mains your aerial will also go into this box, if so put this box onto a different plug and leave on all the time and upstairs should stay on.
