hi there i live in RG8 8DB i get London and Oxford transmissions.. now i am worried that i will have to remove one of the areials off the system.... Because i have 26 db boosters on both areials as my area is very poor reception.. now i am worried once london switches to full power its going to give me a major headache to change or remove my masthead boosters... i know for a fact right now taking the boosters out render me no signal at all
