tony - unless you tell us where you are - no idea.
But once digital switch over takes effect your old TV will not tune any channels, because analogue will be switched off - you will need a cheap set-top box. Assuming your TV has a SCART socket.

I have been reflecting on local TV since this thread started.
I think I probably - or at least posssibly - WOULD drop into a local TV station, even though I don't listen to local radio; preferring R4.
Regional TV is not much use if you live in North Wales, as it is mostly about South Wales - literally at the other side of the mountains.
Or I can watch NW region - but that covers a huge area.
Though on Freeview I can only get Central. I have no interest whatsoever in the midlands. Never been there except in transit.
BUT these proposals will give us Liverpool. Which is worse still.

Helen - according to the above you have a chance from Dunkeld - Vertical aerial. Is that what you are trying?
An aerial engineer really ought to be able to inform you if he knows his job.

Peter K - surprised you need an aerial at all, unless in a hollow in the ground behind a big building or something.
Do you need one for analogue?
Try your new TV with a set-top aerial only. Or a wire coat hanger.
If you put your postcode in top right there is much useful info linked.
