Freeview radio problems

Hello

Long story - my Freeview aerial is in the loft (I know that is not ideal but stuck with it for now). For a long time the signal has been a bit dodgy and I have struggled for a consistent picture without pixell;ation etc. The radio channels have been fine.

Yesterday, in a desperate attempt to improve things I took the aerial from the "floor of loft and suspended it from the rafters so that it is much closer to the apex of the roof. Problem solved - strong signal on all TV channels. But - now I am getting major break ups on the BBC Radio stations.

So - what could be causing that (it's the same on several televisions)

Thanks

Re: Freeview radio problems

You need to try the aerial in several positions until you hopefully find a "sweet spot" that works on all the frequencies.
