Looks like you're lined up on Sandy.

The wavy pattern on BBC2 analogue is because the idiot from Action Aerials doesn't have a clue what he's doing & probably doesn't even have a decent spectrum analyser to see what the problem is on CH27.

My guess would be the amplifier is being overloaded with the strong analogue signals. Try fitting a 6db attenuator on the end of the cable before it goes into the amplifier. This will almost certainly cure the problem completely.

A decent installer would test this & know exactly what the problem is in about 1 minute. Where do they get these idiots from?
