I dont know if this is the right section to post in but I wondered if anybody can shed some light on my DVB T2 PSB3 reception problems?
Some background is that after initial weeks of intermittent problems it worked fine for months through the HDR 2000T
Its a landlords amplified aerial system and he doesnt appear to have done any work on it. The aerial on the roof looks suitably fancy to cope.
Recently I have been back to intermittent problems or no signal at all. It can work for an evening and then not be working at say 2am. Sometimes after an initial stutter for a few seconds it works fine for hours
Sometimes it stutters so badly I have to give up, then it might work ok the next day. It doesnt pixelate...it stutters than goes to a black screen...weak signal marker.
Sometimes there is no signal at all on channel 54.
I have complained to the Winter hill people over reports of maintenance but why does it intermittently work and they say now thats its not the transmitter. Its not mobile phone mast interference and its not hdmi cable interference
I know that the DVB T2 is a higher data transmission rate or something.
Any thoughts please? Is it likely to be the box, the aerial?...why did it work perfectly for months? I have considered neighbour interference, computers unshielded wall plates but nothing adds up.
I suppose I need another box to compare. I did try a Huawei(now given away) and that seemed to pick up the signal but had its own problems of the picture going high brightness after 6 seconds. I wonder if the aerial system is just badly amplified.
I think I need a backup globe aerial or something to test it. why did it work fine for months? If the aerial is incapable, misaligned or the amplifier faulty how does it work somtimes but not others?.
If the Humax box is faulty how did it work perfectly for months then go intermittent again
Its driving me mad this...why is it just DVB T2 BBC1 HD etc on that group. A TV engineer is expensive
Just having a rant
Best wishes to everyone on the forum
