I've recently had an extension built on my house and installed a tv in the kitchen. With the existing aerial it seemed to pick up the main channels ok but additional ones were ropes and hd was a non event. I bought a high gin aerial which sorted the hd out perfectly however th other freeview channels are very temperamental. On retune will give itv and associated channels but the bbc channels are awful and vice versa. I have now bought a booster which gives me great bbc service now but itv, channel 4 & 5 etc are horrendous. I'm pretty sure the problem is too much signal on UHF channel 44. Bottom line is I'm confused as to what else I can do. The only thing I can thnk of now is that when the cable has been split and run to the new socket it has been bodged and stuck with tape rather than using a y connecter or splitter. Can anybody help here please?
