Karen Ballington: Buy an attenuator, they only cost a fiver. I suggest you use another shop too.

andy: Analogue transmission are now depreciated in Spain, and DVB-T digital services have replaced them.

If you buy a "Freeview" set it is 100% compatible with the services in Spain.

A better idea is a "Freeview HD" set, which will be compatible with future Spanish HD broadcasts.

michael: Being a digital service, the "received signal strength" is of little concern. It is the "received signal quality" that is the main issue.

The COFDM service is designed to provide full service to the very edge of the service area, and nothing beyond it, the famed "digital cliff".

As with digital TV, the service will be the same everywhere within the service area, you don't get the reduction of quality you get with analogue.
