Bruce, thanks for the response. I have video taken with a camera aimed at the TV, not from a tivo-type device. Sorry if this created any confusion.

I'm attempting to watch the game tonight on CBLT, but am getting the usual pixelation. Signal strength is about 100% and I'm 45 miles away from the CN tower. Antenna (homemade Hoverman-style) is 25 feet off the ground. No preamp. Audio does not skip when picture pixelates/burps. Other Canadian channels (19.1, 25.1, 41.1, 47.1) do not burp at all.

It is worth noting that live picture (watching Don Cherry on ice right now) burps every 10 seconds or so whereas the standard Hockey Night in Canada opening burped every second. Also, some commercials burp every second whereas some commercials, especially the lower resolution ones, do not burp at all. Not sure if this helps but nothing surprises me anymore.

I tried aiming the antenna in different directions/attenuated signal to no avail.

Well, back to unflavoured NBC coverage.. . sigh
