Ann: I would see Single frequency interference | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .

To answer your question, nothing is being measured electronically for the signal quality, it is a digital measurement of the bit-error rate, the BER. This is a measure of the number of bits that have to be recovered from the FEC (foreard error correction).

chris ayers: If you have a rooftop aerial you should have perfect, stable reception.

If you are not getting that, you might wish to contact your installer.

Upgrading from Sky to Freesat | Freesat

Andrew: No, you can't record/pause/play with fSfS. You must pay Sky a subscription for a Sky+ or Sky+HD box to record/pause/play.

If you don't wish to pay a subscription, change the Sky+HD box for a Freesat+HD box.

David Haworth: Most channels do not have 5.1 sound, so you would not expect them to be effected.

No one else has mentioned this problem yet.

Bryan: Well, clearly you would not need to change your aerial if it was working before.

Freesat uses satellites that are above the equator over the DR Congo, and have nothing to do at all with Freeview.

If you still have not found the source of the problem, see Freeview reception has changed? | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .
