Don't give up yet, I still have some more ideas for you to try.

Tivo Roamio Plus can be great, but check it out carefully before keeping it longer than 30 days

Thanks for the exact coordinates. I ran your FM fool report to see if there were any strong FM signals that might be causing interference. With FM fool there is no link like there is for tvfool reports. I deleted the numbers after the decimal point to protect you, even though the report only shows two digits after the decimal point. I also ran some tvfool reports at different heights, but I will not post them unless you give me permission to do it. They also have truncated coordinates, so the approx. coordinates are pretty far away from your exact location. This is your FM signal report:

The only way you'd be able to positively correlate your intermittent decoding errors with some local RF transmission would be to sit there with a spectrum analyzer watching it and your diagnostic screen (or display) and see if you can spot some sort of broadcast that occurs at precisely the same time as a decoding error. It would be like looking for a needle in a haystack unless you could narrow down any of the variables.
I agree with ADTech.
