It's simply a weak signal. Back in the days of analog, if the signal was weak you got a snowy picture. Now with digital, it's basically "all or nothing." Perfect picture, or a break-up into none. That can change on a daily basis and by season. Might be a perfect picture one day and none the next with the wrong equipment.
A low-noise $40 preamp AT the antenna will probably make a huge difference. So will the correct antenna depending on what you're watching. There is NO such thing as a "digital antenna" or "digital amp." That being said, many TV stations changed frequencies and bands when they went from analog to digital. In most rural areas, reception is now better, not worse IF you've got the correct equipment pointed in the correct direction.
Go to a place like TVfool.com and type in your address or GPS co-ords. It will give you a print out of all the channels by their "fake" numbers and their true numbers along with all the info needed.
