Analogue aerial - picture degradation
Discussion
Had a quick search, but couldn't find anything on this topic.
I have noticed a marked degradation on the signal coming through my analogue tv aerial in the past two weeks (on the tv channels not connected through the Sky box that used to be fine). Had a poke round the loft and checked the various boosters/boxes etc - all seemed to be fine.
Have now noticed the same issue at my Mums house on her freeview through the analogue aerial.
Has anyone else noticed a similar problem recently? Is this coincidence (not even sure if the two ways of receiving signal would be affected in the same way), or is something going on to deliberately degrade analogue signals before the digital switch-over?
Both located in North London/Herts BTW.
Any info or guidance from those in the know would be much appreciated!

An aerial is an aerial, there is no analogue or digital, your 'terrestrial' aerial will pick up both.
As I have already said, high atmospheric pressure plays havoc with the signal, if you are just on the edge then this may be why your picture is now bad. You will need to check you signal strength and maybe upgrade the aerial or find the weak link, a connection or poor cable?
I'm in Nth London on CP, I have no issues with analogue or digital reception.
