Last week I had a freeview aerial installed so I can receive signal for my new bt uhd youview box.
I have a problem that every 10 seconds ( all the time, never misses) the signal drops out completely for about half a second. Signal strength and quality drop to 0%
Usual signal is 60% strength and 100% quality that is with a booster on the mast, he did turn this down as initially it was 100% strength and quality
The engineer says the local radar station is to blame, it's a mile away in the other direction a type 93 MoD radar. However I know of no other person with this issue in my immediate viscinity. He says it's the best signal he can get and I will have to live with it !!!! Apparently there is a small handful of people he knows of with this problem in the surrounding villages.
He has not tried other locations on the roof or aiming the aerial slightly off ( is that worth a try?)
Hoping someone can shed some light on this as the engineer feels he has finished and the shop only wants their £ 188 for the work down
Thanks
Jonny
