so that means signal strength down and that ive got to watch it on 2 tvs worth over a grand and the picture breaking up all the time.A big thank you to the bcc for that,no thought of whats happening on the fringer edges.

Try adding an indoor amplifier. It may work but I agree why should you.
Another thing to check. Do you use the ready made connection leads from ariel sockets at the wall? If you do try changing them by making some out of satellite ariel cable. It's double screened.
