Signal qualities

Heard a radio interview yesterday with someone from Digital UK answering allegations that the quality of digital tv signal in some, especially rural areas, has deteriorated suddenly although it was fine at the beginning of the year when the switchover was enforced by analogue switch off.

The weather forms one part of the (possible) explanation, I heard to my astonishment, the signal is less good in warm muggy weather than it was in the crisp cold air of our exceptionally cold winter!

There are weather problems with analogue signals too, said the expert, though these were not often talked about!
