I experiencd something similar. I am in Papakowhai (Porirua Basin) and found
that my card had locked onto the repeater transmitter at Baxters Knob ...
there is not a great deal of angular difference between KauKau and Baxters
Knob at my location.
Making sure that the card was tuning the correct transmitter (Mt Kaukau)
fixed all my problems. I now get 50% plus signal with 0 BE and very good
stable pictures on rabbit ear antenna. I have line of sight path to both
Kaukau and Baxters Knob.
