Well my digital TV reception is absolutely fine.
I did have problems at first but found these to be caused by issues with my set up.
All I am saying is - if you are having problems it is more than likely that it is your household set up that is at fault (usually the aerial or aerial leads / connectors).
Some people (including me) live in weaker spots for reception but this can usually be cured by installing a stronger aerial, possibly with signal booster.

I'm no expert, just lay knowledge, but I gather the upside of digital is it can be a much better picture and sound. However the downside is - unlike analogue - it needs a better and more consistent signal. Someone with an adequate analogue signal will not notice they do not have top quality reception as the system makes do. However the digital signal will instantly show the weakness in Pixie Lotted, jerky picture and rotten sound.
It is rarely the TV set faulty. A decent aerial installer will have all the current mapping and will be able to sort the problem (or tell you it is as good as it can be).
