I use Freeview through an aerial. I only moved in last year so am not sure of the exact set up but there seems to be some sort of device in loft splitting (boosting?) the signal to multiple rooms (late 80's house, aerial faceplates and phone sockets everywhere!)
Anyway, after a new aerial it worked just fine, until I recently moved the TV across the room, meaning I went from a 1m to a 10m coax cable.
Since then, I seem to get up to two days of use before the signal degrades and becomes unusable. If I unplug the coax cable from the TV and re-insert it, all is restored - for a couple of days - and repeat...like some sort of interference slowly builds up.
Any ideas what might be going on? I didn't spend much on the coax cable (Amazon, <£10). Could that be the issue?
Cheers.
