Below are all of Sally's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.I live in RH11 and have an aerial pointing at Crystal palace.I also have the full SKY package. I have a Panny TX42s30b with FreeviewHD built in. My aerial is on the front of the house and a cable run would be about 20 meters. What would be the best aerial and would I need a booster of any kind. Our current aerial has 9 spines and a rectangular backplate. (Sorry if they arent the correct terms).

Steve. I am not ditching the Sky, but I want the option of FreeviewHD on the Panasonic as well as SKY.

Oh. And I have to run a new cable from the aerial. to get it downstairs. Do you think 20 meters is too long a run?

Hi all. I hope this isnt too simple a question but here goes. We purchased a TX42S30b tv from a new Panny store that opened. I have the full SKY package (SD only)feeding it. I transmit the signal through a Philips Wireless to the bedroom. I want to fit an DVBT2 connection also and have a mast on the front of the house facing to Crystal Palace. Unfortunately we have a tiled home and therefore its not easy to move the mast, Or fit an extended one to get above the other homes in the area. It is a right angled "Elbow" connection with enough clearnace behind for about 2 feet before the roof would interfere and currently is bolted to a solid Fascia. The run to the TV will be approximately 25 metres. My Post Code is RH11 8NR Can anyone advise on which aerial type or model and whether or not I will need to boost the signal.
