Smooth radio

Hi I'm at ol3 7ny and can receive Smooth radio (north west) on 100.4 FM with a perfect signal in my car outside my house with RDS stereo etc. but when i use my portable radio inside my house on the same frequency the signal is very weak - is this something to do with the aerial on my car being stronger than my telescopic aerial inside?

Good work Braintist
Just browsing through the ofcom pages on radio DAB switchover information, looks like (for my region anyway) in Manchester/North West that there may be plans for new DAB transmitters (Glossop, Warrington, Saddleworth, Beech Hill, Romiley too name a few).

Good work :)
Key 103 is a Manchester radio station though, coverage from Saddleworth should be shown to be receivable across the whole of Greater Manchester and Cheshire, thus the narrow beam extending coverage all the way into North Wales.

Although improvement may not be that important because this site is packed full of information anyway :)

Hi there. I have just installed a new sky+HD box, replacing my old Sky+ box which didn't have HD. My old set up all worked fine including the tv link upstairs ... (The RF coax supplied me with a more than suitable picture on the upstairs TV).

I have connected up all the wires and cables again with my new sky+HD box and it works perfectly as well as the magic eye, although one thing is I appear to be receiving a bit of a weak signal on the upstairs TV and the screen is a tiny bit grainy which is sometimes notable. All the set up is correct (and the magic eye works) but I just think the picture upstairs is a little too fuzzy, is there anyway I can improve it?
