TV Tuner loses Signal

Question

Hi,   New  Dell Dimension E520 Core 2 Duo Processor Desktop running Genuine Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 with Dell PCIe Hybrid PAL/SECAM/DVB-T TV Tuner with Remote Control.   TV Tuner via roof-antenna connection scanned-in 25 local Digital TV channels. Great HD Picture, nice strong signal (apparently).   Problem: After viewing for 5, 10, 20 or sometimes 30 minutes the sound mutes, followed by picture freezing, then message appearing : 'No signal on this channel... etc, etc.' Other channels: same thing happens short time after switching channels.   Temporary cure: Exit Media Center, then start Media Center again and it will work fine untill the above happens again.   Note: No such problem with the analog channels, but very much reduced picture quality. Grainy appearance.   Any Ideas?
