Hi, I'm lost! We live in Lansdowne Street, Hove. BN31FR. Analogue signal has always been terrible. We all use Sky satellite (4 flats) as not cabled area but one flat is rented and owner wants to keep options open. The building is being refurbished and aerials all have to come off for repairs - is it worth putting them back up? They are about 10 years plus old. Will reception be improved after march 2012 switch-over? or would we need a more modern aerial? I've been put in charge of refurb and need to make decisions. Hope someone can help. Plus for analogue signal which is best direction to point aerial. Thanks you. Best wishes Lynn

Lynn Forbes:Hi jb38. Thanks for your help I'm a lot happier now! One last thing - would one aerial be sufficient for 4 flats our would we need 2? I won't feel like such an idiot when talking with installers! 2 of us want to do the lot but waiting for a reply from the others. Thanks again. Best wishes Lynn

Hi again, thank you again you are a star! We are going for 2 aerial roof packs (from the link you sent me) as one flat has 2 floors and 2 connections so 5 in total not 4. Plus gives an option for the rest of us to add. Current set up is 2 working aerials both ancient!(+ one in bits!)only one flat uses it at all occasionally as the have a Polish satellite. The builder is confident they can do the work so may be cheaper than outside installers quotes if I order - plus can be done while scaffolding up. Is it your company the link? Still will order - you deserve it for all your help. Didn't mean to put analogue when asked about direction but thanks for that too. All Best Lynn

me again! Let me know if there is a better option than the "roof packs" but we are on a bit of a budget with all this work underway
Cheers Lynn

To jb38: seems like the more info I get the more confused I am!!! Have ordered on phone from the link - and got more info I don't really understand!!! Hopefully when stuff arrives we can figure out what to do with it!? But really good guys and said I can call back for help. Thanks again for all your help. Hopefully I can now get back to my normal work to pay for all this!
Thanks again - you really are a star! (didn't feel like a total moron when I spoke to them!) All Best Lynn
