Below are all of heather's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.I am wondering if several people in my area of edinburgh have had reception interference on and off since September last year. I have had aerial engineers out twice (no help), and it doesn't seem to correspond to weather conditions either , nor is it related to other electrical items in my home. There is also nothing wrong with my TV. I have freeview with a built in tuner. My neighbour did say that she had had a little interference from around Sept / Oct but she doesn't have freeview. I am at a loss as to what is causing this intermittent interference. How can one find out if it is due to a new building or whatever, or a local radio ham or what. I never had any problems prior to September and my aerial is relatively new and has nothing wrong with it. All channels are affected at the same time---picture jerks or freezes and likewise the sound, and there is occasional pixellation. Other times it is perfect and can switch from one to the other within a space of a few hours. It was very bad on Christmas day. Any suggestions please?

I have had freeview intermittant interference since September---sometimes unwatchable. Have had two visits from the aerial engineer---all normal things checked out, and he tried a couple of things, but the interference is no better. I'm just trying to live with it now but am an OAP and really appreciate resting and watching tv. I never had any problems before September. I love in north Edinburgh. Advice please?
