C25 (506.0MHz) after switchover

Hi,
I've been having what appears to be intermittent issues with certain channels over the last few weeks - picture breaking up, heavily pixelated.
Looking into this in a bit more depth on the TV signal test, it appears to be around 2 or 3 channels, where signal strength is quite low (channel 25, 10%, channel 26, 14-18%), and signal quality is around (channel 25, 0-12%, channel 26, 68-88%). Channel 23 not great either (strength circa 22%, Quality circa 55-91%). Channel 22 and 28 are showing around 42% for strength and 100% for Quality.
Don't know whether I need to climb on the roof to see if my aerial has moved, or if there is something else going on.
Post Code is AB14 0RA, served by Durris mast.
Can you help?
Many thanks
Jim

Chris.SE: Thanks for your feedback and input, gives me more to look into. Haven't identified any pattern in the intermittent issues yet. No intention of checking in this weather :) , have ladders and can access in better weather to check.

Steve Donaldson: Thanks for your feedback and input, gives me more to look into. Hadn't considered the trees at Priory Hill so can investigate a bit more on this. Had considered some Engineering works but hadn't seen posted anywhere so again, I can investigate this a bit more. All appreciated.
