Aerials

[BertiWooster]

Can anyone recomend an indoor digital aerial that stands a good chance of picking up digital signals .?

Can a roof aerial be adapted / extended to supply two / three sets - if so what do I need to purchase ?

1. No .. Cr@p in = Cr@p out.
2. Yes .. buy a Mast amp 2, 3 or 4-way and power supply.
3. Above assuming current antenna is up to the job and correctly aligned.

Triax or Labgear are best. Don't go higher than around 16dB gain.

There is no such thing as a digital aerial.

Any aerial will pick up both analogue and digital.

But digital does tend to require a roof-mounted high-gain aerial.

To split the signal from the aerial to a number of rooms you need a amplifier fitted near the aerial and the various cables run down from the chmney to each room. I have this in my house, the one aerial feeds into 4 rooms.

Any decent aerial fitter will be able to fit an amplifier for you.

The suggestions here are seriously optimistic! but it will give you an idea about the feasibility of an internal aerial.

Anything over 10 miles away you've not got any chance of an internal working.

If ,by indoor, you could mean loft-mounted then I get perfect digital reception with one purchased from Maplins. But I am in a strong signal area.

Am i correct in saying that you live in the West midlands - in particular, solihull

Can you recomend anyone ?

Forget that Maplins stuff .. do it properly yourself with decent stuff .. or if you don't like heights and spanners, get a local.

What you on about CF? My answer was a good'un : )

I used a company called A1 aerials that do have fitters in Solihull area.
