This week I've started to have problems with my Samsung STB in that the picture freezes on a few channels. Notably it's ITV and C4 but generally in the evenings. It vertually died Tuesday night when I went to watch the footy, I got a frozen pic that changed about every 10 seconds. Audio kept breaking up as well. Would this have something to do with signal strength, or would that then affect all channels?

I'm no expert on theis so I was just wondering if a lot of people tuned in to the same channel at the same time in a local area, whether it would have an affect on the signal or not. I did call a friend up at the time who lives a few streets away and he was fine.
