My high gain aerial can't get all the Freeview channels I e

Hi,
I wonder if you can help me - I've just had a guy round (sent via BT Vision) to check why I am only receiving 14 channels when up to a few months ago I had 33.

He had a look and said he thinks the booster isn't working (it has a crack in the box) and that I should get a new one.

He unplugged the aerial from the booster and showed it at about 23% signal and then he plugged it in and said it was now around 60% but it should be more like 100%.

I just want to make sure that I am buying the right thing and whether it's worth it, or should I just wait for the switchover?

I was told on the phone that it isnt happening until Dec 2011 & that the signal will massively improve then. I'm currently getting a signal from the Heathfield transmitter (my postcode is RH16 3JH).

Any advice on exactly what I should or shouldn't buy to improve the situation would be greatly appreciated,

many thanks
Nikki
