TV fault

He's the only one who is though; if it was an RF side issue, I would not expect anything like such a "sharp" area of corruption, on the other hand I wouldn't expect just random mush, but I would expect a *lot* less order within the displayed picture.

I don't know why. Anyone who has operated a digital TV with a bad signal knows that isn't what happens. Anyone who has operated a PC with a bad graphics card or monitor knows that that is exactly what happens I'd hazard a guess at bad RAM that gets used but not all the time.

I would test with a Rabbit Ears or a BowTie, plus a 300:75 ohm balun, and see if the reception works differently than with the sender/amp combo and the roof antenna. While reception conditions might be "fringe" already, you won't know what will show up in a scan, until you try it.
