Are Your Freeview Hd Channels Stuttering ?

[*Wallace*]

Mine have been since Monday it’s well annoying done some Googling and the most likely causes are telephone signals and a filter may be required just wanted to know if it’s just me..

Done 2 retunes now no improvement.

Aerial out of alignment?

Don’t think so mate but I suppose it’s a possibility it has gone like this in the past but disappeared after a few days or a retune sorted it out. Someone on another forum said their Freeview went stuttery when a 4 or 5G phone mast was turned on but a 15 quid filter thing from Amazon sorted it lots of other people said it made zero difference.

I'm having the same problem. It's been a bit better the last few days but still showing "a weak signal " when it was fine a couple of weeks ago.

Seek advice from a qualified TV engineer?

Yes it’s on the cards but like I said it has cleared itself up in the past so will give it a bit of time,I’ve found out that pressing pause on the Humax Freeview recorder for maybe 2 seconds then playing cures the stutter but if you skip adverts and it gets back to live it’s like Norman Collier again.

a tv engineer won't be able to do much about a signal problem.

 

check the aerial cable is secure, move any sources of electrical interference away from it, identify the mux that the problem channels are on -- (chekhov may be able to help), check the signal strength. a rogue electrical appliance can also cause breakup when switched on, as can weather conditions

 

if it is happening regularly, rule out the humax stb

Dunno what a mux is it’s been in the same place years no new electrical items at all signal strength is very good it’s only on the HD channels if that helps.
