Hi brian could you set up a riggers page where riggers around the country could give help to each other when they need it and b1tch about customers who give them a hard time. This could help each other and the thing about the customers at a job today 2 1/2 hours for a clip on aerial on a sunday then a 15 mile drive to my next job and they where as bad as the first. Just sitting at home now with a glass of wine listening to pink floyd what i have to do to unwind. Sorry for the rant but the first part could be helpful all the best anthony c and a aerials

Stephen does your tv have something saying no signal or is the picture snowy if it is snowy you might have pressed the analouge button if so try pressing the digital button if you are on the digital side and your aerial is ok call your aerial man he should come out and he might be able to help you

Aaron you should take either your humax box or your hd box to one of the bedroom points that you know work and do a re tune if everything works fine take the box back to your main point if it comes up no signal or poor signal it is your aerial so call out a good local aerial man if it doesnt tune in upstairs and your other boxs do it could be your box. Just remember with the humax box you have to do a factory reset befor you retune hope this helps

Aaron mark is right use a log aerial they are not the strongest for signal but they offer a flat frequency responce offer low interferance and low windage so great in high winds if you live near the coast

Shrimper have you called an aerial man to come out and have a look at your freeview and freesat he could fix them at the same time and all will be well but it will cost you

Mr lingdren if you only have a band b aerial channel 60 is out of its range if you are in a medium to poor reception area how old is your aerial any aerial fitted in the last 3 years should have been wideband. You should call your aerial rigger back and ask him for help, if your aerial is over 1 year old there will proberly be a charge. Hope this helps

Hi colin storeton does have a high wind load due to it being on its side. How old is the aerial if its under 2 years old it might just be lose and need turning to the right direction. I have been using log periodic aerial these seem to have a lower wind loading i work over childwall area and find them great. if your aerial was done before the switchover you might be able go onto winter hill this has a much lower wind load. If you need any information please call me tomrow on 01695558169 and i might be able to help you if your aerial is under 1 year old call back the rigger who fitted it hope this helps c and a aerials.

Stephen there is something called a stacker and de stacker this puts two signals into one coax cable. This is what you might want the only problem is that it is very costly hope this helps c and a aerials
