Hi all, just thought I'd share my experiences with you.
Last year I had a few aerials in the loft and was having a few picture problems, pixelation picture locking etc, so I had a new aerial and multi output amplifier fitted in the loft, shielded coax. All was good perfect picture.
Just before xmas I upgraded my tv to a Panasonic pz80 to get full hd. Great tv but started getting a problem with ITV, CH4, CH5 etc which are all transmitted on freeview ch48. There was no problem with any other tv in the house so I thought I had a faulty tv. The retailer would check it for me but had to take it away which I didn't want so I started checking for other solutions first.
Started swapping leads, checking plugs etc. Couldn't find anything. After a bit of research I found out that my signal could be TOO STRONG!!!!.
I purchased a variable attenuator for £2.80, fitted inline and guess what, everything sorted.
I would never have believed it TOO STRONG A SIGNAL IS JUST AS BAD AS A POOR SIGNAL.
