Digital TV noise

Look a little bit more to the left, the the next set of towers, then LH side.

I would will get a TV guy to do it from local paper. Strange that last week I got everything (but always did have the odd time Channel 7 would disappear) Can't see any changes to aerial still looks OK?

What language is that?

brief bursts that keep breaking up the picture and sound so you cant follow a conversation

Not to belittle the OP's and other P's problems, but I find this thread somewhat amusing, considering the recent mention (in aus.comms?) that FTA digital TV - i.e. DVB-T - is perfectly fine!

I'm grateful that I have DVB-*C*, while even that gives the - very - occasional hiccup. If I couldn't have DVB-C, I would get IPTV and only if my TV screen broke, I would get DVB-T! :-)

Frank from a country where they took *down* the masts/antennas *four* *decades* ago!

Aerial specialist put new aerial on roof; don't know any further details.

woops, gottoa go, my turn to man the pumps.....

** And you also posted:

" the noise often comes between 4:30 and 7:30, but at other times too of course. "

** This is characteristic of RF impulse noise generated by switch arcing when lighting and appliances are switched on and off. These switches may be in your own home or neighbours homes or even street lighting.

It is the MOST COMMON problem experienced by viewers of DTV with inadequate signals or aerial systems.

If you look at channel 7 analogue, you will see noise burst patterns in the picture at the same time.

It is the BANE of those living in unit blocks and using indoor antennas.

Well I do have a good aerial system and use a splitter amp, but I'll check to see what shows on the analogue channel. mite give a clue. good call.

not everyone sits at their computer all day reading newsgropes..

depends where you are! I know ppl who have foxtel solely to get the FTA channels reliably

I'll have to have all that translated..

** Don't be a prick.

Your signal is weak and your cabling is crap - or else there would be no interference.

And that link does not work.

??? I do have a good aerial

you don't know what the cabling is

It does

** Bullshit it does and you are a stupid, trolling PITA pig.

F*ck off.

** The link is corrupt on my news server: " individual.net" .

Got the right one on Google Groups.

The antenna is NOT a fringe area type.

must be time for your meds, nutjob..

yes it is..

formatting link

That's odd. I use individual.net and the link worked for me. Perhaps the problem is with your news client.

I think the problem is between his ears..
