Not sure where you're located but, round these parts, terrestrial digital TV is VERY sensitive to signal strength - too low, or too much interference, and the TV just stops.
Unlike good old analogue, where it would just have got a bit snowy. Its a bit surprising that your coax RF cable is allowing itself to be interfered with (the whole idea of coax is that the design is less susceptible...) but I can easily imagine that if you have a slightly weak signal, and a not terribly sensitive tuner card, perhaps with dodgy grounding, that just a bit of extra interference could push you over the edge. If you're at the back of your SB then you will be in close proximity to the SB's Power Supply, or more to the point the wire that goes from PS to SB - this is known to throw out lots of nasty interference, which can be reduced by things like ferrite cores on the wire, or replacing the PS with a linear unit. However, if you've found an acceptable workaround then I'm sure you won't bother with any of these things...
