Given the distance between you and Tac I doubt it is signal strength that is the issue. Digital is going to highlight more issues with cabling. Winter will see greater stresses on the aerial (hot/cold expansion) and what was OK with analogue begins to cause problems with digital.

I would suggest a visual inspection and then I think you might have to bite the bullet and get in an expert.

You can get issues that only impact on certain frequencies - it can be an odd situation.

Are you also sure it isn't Sudbury you are using or is your aerial pointing towards Norfolk? If you want to DIY it I would suggest a log periodic aerial (the BBC used them for their relays!) or a Blake DMX-10 wideband. Personally I'd go for a Blake DMX-10 wideband as it can really pull in a signal.

I don't have any affiliation with anyone - I just teach Physics...
