I have been receiving com7/com8 *mostly* from Sutton C for a couple
of years and apart from when I had a distribution amp failure, the
quality has been 100%.
Last week just by chance, I looked at the quality of com7 on a 10
year old Sony tv. I had a perfect picture and sound but the set said
the quality was zero. I had a quick check around our various TVs, the
old sets all gave excellent pictures but zero quality. Newer sets all
said the quality was 100%.
I grabbed my cheapo meter/analyser and shot up the loft where I can
get the feed directly from my aerial with only about 2M of cable.
Meter said:
COM7 CN 15% MER 19%
COM8 CN 77% MER 99%
Can't say exactly when this changed from the previous 'perfect' but
it was fine before christmas.
Is it reasonable to assume this is the SFN and another transmitter
damaging my signal?
Odd that all tvs show no sign of a problem with picture or sound and
that the new TVs tell the quality is 100%.
