Channel 5 blues

[dsvd]

Hi I have recently moved into a ground floor flat and using the local coaxial cable in the room for the whole house cannot get chanel 5.

I realise digital switch over happens May 5 and this should improve the signal.

Is there anything else I can do or buy to boost the signal in the meantime?

well at the risk of sounding sarcastic, a signal booster is a good way of boosting a signal!

However, if the switchover is happening in your area in a few weeks then you will loose the normal TV signal totally (therefore all channels) so a freeview box is going to be needed and will give you channel 5 (assuming the aerial is a wideband one)
