I'm a real newbie to HDTV, I have just purchased a Sony 34XS955 and have a UHF only antenna connected to it. I'm located in Scarborough so I pointed the antenna due south toward Buffalo. I'm having a lot of trouble with pixelation errors. The diagnostic meter shows a signal of 92-95% and the SNR is 28-29dB, when the screen pixelates I see no errors but half the picture is gone and the audio mutes. Any Ideas?

Thanks
Brian

You didn't mention if your UHF antenna is an indoor model or an outdoor model, but good HDTV digital reception almost always requires an outdoor antenna aimed at the TV transmitter fo reliable reception. Miltipath, or reflected signal is usually the culprit in issues of pixelization, and the only solution is a good outdoor antenna aimed at the transmitter.
