Below are all of Brian's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.Hi mike thanks for the reply, having taken a close look at the old aerial, i noticed both the bracket and mast are suffering badly with corrosion so to save the hassle i think i will replace the lot, but following your advise i will just use a basic wide band [probably yegar pattern] aerial. for the time being i have plugged an old 8inch indoor loop to the decoder [got the wife off my back] and have perfect picture on most channels [a few are missing]
Many thanks for your imput

I currently have an old 12 element wide band areal, whilst i noticed all around me have been having hi-gain [contract range] areals i don't feel this is necessary, as i can pick up many channels without connecting the areal, I am therefore considering replacing it with a Log-Periodic Aerial [short 28e]
do any of you technical wiz kids have a view on my decision
thanks
