If the digital receiver is able to decipher the digital data stream, then you'll end up with a perfect picture. You'll never see ghosts. Digital TV is mostly an all-or-nothing signal. The transition from fully decodable to not decodable at all happens over a very small range.
If things are dynamically changing, like trees blowing in the wind, then you might see the picture break up or freeze occasionally. If some of the digital data is getting dropped intermittently, it will be kind of like watching a scratched DVD.
