The central heating? We've got gas central heating. Would that affect the tv? It's been fine for the past year. It's been raining for a while but would that just affect HD channels?
My next test will be to compare the TV's HD channel picture to the recorder's. I'll watch BBCHD through the TV and record the same channel through the recorder's tuner. If no disturbance on the live feed and some drop outs on the recorded picture then I'll isolate the problem to the recorder.
Seems a coincidence that Bargoed had engineering work just when the problem started. Is my problem indicative of this new 4G issue?
Thanks

Problem solved. Thanks for replying. When I retuned the Panasonic bwt 720 gave me three options: Wales, GBR, and Best Signal. Picked best signal this time and now everything's perfect again (picked Wales before). Sorry to bother you. Posting now in case other set top boxes and TVs have similar options.

Previously had excellent reception. All channels disappeared on Saturday. Switched recorder and tv off for an hour. Switched back on, retuned both, a few extras channels, BBC3HD now. Fine? No. Now every 15 minutes or so HD channels will freeze or drop out, then come back on. Just recorded. BBC News on BBC1 and BBCHD at the same time. Drop out occurred on the HD but no problem at all on the SD channel. Very annoying as HD is obviously my default option. Any ideas? Site appears to say someengineering work in Bargoed on Saturday but problem still ongoing on Monday.
Thanks
