Default How many tv channels did you have as a child?

I don't know if this is a false memory, but in one particular house I THINK we could get SkyOne if the telly was tuned in a certain way, but it was awful quality. That might be conflating with a particularly bad reception for C5, but I.vaguely remember a weird and shortlived glitch with SkyOne that allowed normal TVs with a certain aerial being able to get it in very specific circumstances?

A snowy picture was the result of a poor reception or a poorly situated aerial back in the day wasn’t it ??
