Briantist:-Remember that caption well!!!,when i was young,it used to be Anglia up until 1974,i also noticed in norfolk,there are a heck of a lot of relay stations,the further east you go,especially on the coast,the majority of people have 2 aerials,one to belmont,& the other,vertically polarised to the local relay,& people say norfolk's flat & borin'!!!!

Geoff:- I use a 40 element log-periodic aerial,obtained from Aerials & tv,& it works extremely well,especailly if you require a wideband aerial,that has very directional & good interference rejection.

Steve P:- That's correct,that's the transmitter i receive here in Scawby,just used it as an illustration.this way can also be used if you can receive more than one transmitter.
