I live in Ramsgate, and every time, like this evening, when the weather is influenced by continental high pressure, the signal over the whole of the Thanet area drops out. This has been a constant problem since the digital switchover, when is something going to get done about this, so we can enjoy un-interupted digital tv, no matter what the weather?
