Georgie: I would guess from this that your LNB has failed, and will require replacement. You can get new ones for about £30.

M Tracey: Of course the transmitter is not being turned off, it serves 1,870,000 homes.

Nick: Flat panel sets are much, much better than CRTs, and this is often the problem, they show up faults in the picture that are blurred by a CRT.
If you have an LCD or plasma display and find the picture is not as you expect, turn off the "sharpening" feature - and other visual enhancements.
HD pictures are clearly much better than SD on analogue or digital, if you can't see so, then you are probably not looking at an HD broadcast.
Everything on BBC HD is 1080-line HD, but not everything on BBC One HD, Channel 4 HD or ITV1 HD is sourced in HD.

Gary: It is the quality indication that is important, not the signal strength. Your amplification may be fooling the circuits into thinking there is a digital carrier, but all you have is noise.
