Wrexham Rhos (Wrexham, Wales) Freeview Light transmitter

Hi,

I live in Rhos and I currently use a Sky dish to receive TV because, when I first moved in, it was difficult to receive a good Freeview signal. However, since then the Digital Switchover has been completed in my area and I'm thinking of getting YouView from TalkTalk and they require that I have an aerial. I have a couple of questions:

1. From where I live, Wrexham-Rhos transmitter and Winter Hill transmitter are both in roughly the same direction so could I pick up both signals on the same aerial?

2. I live in a first floor flat with one other flat above me, the front of my flat is on the correct side to face the transmitter, could I put my aerial on the front of my building rather than the roof? Is the signal in my area known to be strong enough to use an indoor or window-mounted aerial?

3. What do you think of multi-directional aerials like the Philex Digidome? Do they work?

Thanks for any advice or help you can offer.

Phil
