I have a booster box at the point where the aerial cable enters the house, under the floorboards. I can't access it directly. As far as I understand it, this coaxial cable is pretty good, it's from a place that fits aerials and dishes, it's not one of those thin ones that comes bundled with things.

Since I retuned the Freeview it seems much better. One or two are still showing problems for some reason. It could partly be down to the box, which I know isn't great. Just having an occasional problem with flickery top of image distortion on the 'VCR' channel (very occasional, and not constant, as on other channel inputs) for VHS input only, and some on?off high pitch buzzing, from the set.
The Aiwa VHS is a bit rubbish, and only temporary till my Panasonic comes back, so I won't concern myself with the issues there until I can double check things by plugging in the Panasonic first.
