Is digital TV immune to these analogue problems?
We actually have it worse in the part of North London where I live - we're in a dip, behind a hill, and don't have line of sight on the digital/freeview transmitters. Everyone has cable.
- pmjordan 18y agoIs digital TV immune to these analogue problems? DVB-T uses QAM, which is susceptible to phase problems. However, given that the information is digital, a decent tuner stands a much better chance of filtering out the weaker component. You definitely won't see ghost images: either your bit-error rate is too high for the built-in redundant coding, or it isn't. So either you get MPEG decoding errors, or you don't.
- albahk 18y agoDigital TV streams have error correction so you are likely to experience either a normal picture or none at all. When I was growing up, even a slightly fuzzy ghosted Analog picture was better than no picture at all.
