Mean-while, many not-as-well built as should be devices are now picking up interference from their nominally 50Hz mains supply and you've lost all chance of terrestrial freeview if you live in a low signal area.
power-lines were never made to carry RF signals and make better antennas than they do transmission lines for the stuff.
Oh, 'not-as-well built' doesn't just mean old, it often means modern mass-produces stuff with a planned obsolescence date.
