Yes this question is very general in meaning and different areas of the ladder has different reception to TV signal.
We are living at Warham Road and Wightman Road corner and external and internal aerial reception is really poor.
Mobile phone reception too

Thanks for your replies. Its an exterior aerial. The reception has always been excellent until a few days ago. I have checked all the connections and they are all fine but can't check the aerial as it is on the roof. On my tv it shows the signal quality/strength and sometimes it is at almost 100% and then it drops out to no signal or very low. It seems like something is inteferring with the reception. For example yesterday evening it was almost unwatchable but today it was working ok with the odd interuption.

Is it across all channels, or just on some groups?
(for those that don't know, Freeview/DVB-T channels are broadcast in groups known as "multiplexes". Each multiplex is at a different frequency, and can be affected in different ways.)
There are some tests going on at the moment, but they shouldn't be affecting our area of London: the most recent were over parts of Brentford (https://at800.tv/find-out-more/testing/)
It could just be from the wet weather, after the cold spells we've had, getting into broken insulation on the cable.

I did think about the 4G thing but knew it wasn't being tested in our area yet. It happens across all channels. Yesterday was ok but today it is really bad again. At the moment the signal strength is almost 97% but signal quality is very low. Guess will have to try changing the cable or try new aerial and see if that solves the problem. Thanks for all your replies
