David: I agree it is a bad move. It was only necessary to move epg positions in Scotland and Wales, largely at the request of the local tv stations that were placed at channel 23 in those countries. These could have gone to position 8 and BBC Alba to 7 in Scotland. Wales could have put C4 in position 7, or better still position 4, with S4C repositioned to number 7. An opportunity has been wasted.

Thanks MikeB
Sorry to be so long getting back.
I got a variable attenuator and reduced signal to 75% and still the occasional break up appeared, indeed reducing it more dramatically still breaks up.
BBC 1 and 2 are the worst almost nil on ITV 1 and sometimes Ch4 all HD versions.
Tonight watching the One Show BBC1 HD breaks up on studio live shots but not on inserts.
Break up is mainly on camera changes I would say.
So what is way forward please?

David: The TV cannot break up on changes of camera shots, etc - the signal hasn't changed in any way.
Try identifying which channels/muxes are worst hit - you say BBC1 HD, etc isn't great, so thats one. But remember that that mux (PSB3) is being broadcast at the same power levels as the others muxes, and HD is the first one to feel the effects of too much signal. On the other hand, if your watching BBC4 HD, that mux is broadcast at less than a third of that power. Killing the signal strength on one and the other might struggle.
Remember as well that the power level can have subtle changes from minute to minuter - very slight fluctuations, which might push things over the edge. Perhaps see what the best level is for power over the whole range. But at least there has been some improvement, so you seem to be on the right track.

Its only on HD.
I guess as we watch most BBC1 that might seem worse than others. Also can happen on BBC2 HD, ITV1 HD CH4 Hd, BBC News HD. As for BBC4 can't recall but not watched much.
It's something to do with type of program being broadcast as I said One Show studio shots it happened in the inserts it didn't.
Signal strength reduction does not help at any strength. Leeds local ch7 is weakest and is the one that disappears when attenuation large, but still works even a lot of errors on the error scale.
So can it be my aerial or TV set?
Have tried a mobile phone 4G filter in but no help.
No problem on BBC HD on satellite.
I need advise on a way forward please.

Signal strength on terrestrial transmissions seems to break down after around 10 p.m each evening, images pixilate, and eventually go completely.... why is this, when all is clear on Freesat??

A bit more info for MikeB regarding BBC4 HD and us not seeing breakup on that I realised tonight that probably we only watch movies on that and movies do not suffer the breakup.

David: Two important little points which I have not seen mentioned in any of your numerous (more recent) postings. (1) what make / model of TV or box are you using?, (2) and particularly important, your location?, this preferably being in the form of a post code or one from somewhere nearby, e.g: a shop / post office, this info enabling the terrain between the transmitter and your location to be checked out, particularly important if you are not line of sight with the transmitter.

Came across this although sound does show TV and transmissions can be incompatible.
