For the last week I've been experiencing poor picturequality and occasional sound drop-outs on certain Freeviewchannels, including BBC1 to BBC4 and Dave. The ITV and Channel 4channels seem to be unaffected. I have two TVs, and the problem affects both in the same way. My postcode is so43 7JN, and I think my aerial is pointed at the transmitter on the Isle of White. I've had the same aerial set-up for several years, and have made no changes to it. Before I start looking for a physical problem with the aerial or cabling (which is in a hard-to-reach position on the roof), are there any other checks or tests I can perform to try to pinpoint the possible cause?
