Not especially. I get a few, but same on other channels. Watching C5 ATM
picture is pretty stable with the occasional glitch. I'm seeing

ERROR: skipped 127 byte to sync on TS packet
ERROR: ring buffer overflow (61 bytes dropped)

and similar messages. 

I have noticed that A/V sync deteriorates badly on C5

Possibly, but I've not noticed that. Generally other channels are stable
here, although I do have trouble switching channels at times, which seems
related to time of day or weather conditions - that is why i think antenna
is suspect.
