As a ex-TV MATV installer, I'd bet you need to improve your reception field strength - i.e. Start with the antenna.. always. I'm tippin' that's your problem.

My antenna is the biggest and highest gain yagi - corner type I could get. It's a great long spikey contraption with more spikey prongs above and below than you poke a finger , it's 4ft long.
I don't have direct line of sight to Mt Sugerloaf , and Kotara repeater was not there when I bought the big Yagi - Corner .

http://www.hdtvprimer.com/ANTENNAS/comparing.html , I took a lot of bother to get the angle of the dangle right as well my compass bearing aim (from a map) right when I installed it many years ago.
If the problem was the antenna /cable , the pixcelated breakup and stalling would be on all stations would it not , since all my TV signals come from Mt Sugerloaf (near Cessnoc)
Pictures are perfect for every station except ABC (via DA and ADDA) .
