Technophobe: There is no change to the power output of the transmitter during the day or night.
However, when you already have a weak signal (as you are outside the "footprint") the effect of sun on the atmosphere can effect satellite reception.
You could use a larger dish to resolve this problem, but first I would use a satellite signal meter to ensure the dish is well aligned to the satellite.

Looking at UK TV Frequency map - channel C25 (506.0MHz) before switchover map | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice I would guess you might be getting a stray signal from Pontypool or Aberdare.

tony: Sync problems are usually a problem with the box, and are usually cleared if you change to a different channel.
If you use digital-only sound (ie, you have SPDIF to an amplifier) then you can sometimes have other issues with sound synch, which can often be sorted out by adjusting the "sync delay" in the "sound menu".
