pixelation /loss of channels

at 18:00 tonight started to get pixelation and loss of channel on itv and channel 4, bbc1 and 2 seemed to be fine? didn't check any further channels.
Rang 150 and was told it was a signal strength problem and has sent out an engineer.
BUT it's cleared now and madame is watching corrie
Is it worth letting the tech come out or should I just cancel?

Might of just been a local issue at the time... monitor and if it seems ok, then cancel the tech.

Very pleasant young chap I'm afraid I didn't get his name, came and took out a signal restrictor type thing. I must have had a high signal at some time,?? years ago? thanks for the input D.F.

Any way all fixed now.
