Where are you (Australia judging by your phone number), and which
channel is the problem? I'm using DVB-T in Lane Cove, Sydney, and
channel nine is often a problem for me. Re-scanning the channels fixes
it for a while. I suspect they change something every now and then.

That does look like poor signal strength. Do you get the same signal
strength on all channels? I had to add an attenuator (12db IIRC) to
get a usable signal, so the masthead amp could be making the problem
worse.
