Andy: get back the people who fitted the equipment you have paid for expensive equipment so you should expect it to work. If I had done the job I don't leave till it's right and don't take payment till the job is finished.

Tim H: You should carry out a on the outlet socket used by your main TV by temporarily connecting the bedroom TV into it and selecting 60.

If the bedroom TV has a checking facility? check the strength of whilst its still connected into the bedroom outlet, and use this for comparisons purposes against the indication obtained when its connected into the main sets outlet.

Of course, if your main TV is moveable? you could always try the test in reverse.

Sharon: The most common answer to the issue of no being received is where a (booster) is being used and it failing or its power being turned off. This situation includes a communal system, such as found in a block of flats.

Guys thanks again for the info.

I called the guy back and explained what had been happening and also explained that I had sort from this web site, anyway he has fitted a 12dB attenuator, he reassures me this should do the trick.

He also informed me that the reading on his meter was 90dB at the , this don't mean much to me but he said this was very high!

Had TV on now for 2 hours and haven't seen any signs of the breaking up or horrid noises, fingers crossed!

I never thought for one min that we would be getting to much , we live so far away from the I automatically thought it would be week, after reading MikeB reply and link it got me thinking!

Anyway ! cheers guys for all your help, really appreciate it.

Andy: All I can say is if he has 90 dbuv at the there is no need for an , with that amount of you could use an 8 way splitter and get great signal on all points.

Maybe you could explain as far as exactly what is not working?

jb38:
Thanks for the response. Yes, I have already done this and the main TV, when connected to the socket in the bedroom, picks up both missing multiplexes and the is good. However, one slight complication is that the Sony DVD/HD recorder is connected to the same aerial socket as the main TV and it can pick up channel 60 OK (is isn't HD so it can't pick up HD ). The aerial lead used to go into the back of the DVD/HD recorder and then out to the TV. I've tried the TV connected directly to the aerial socket (disconnecting the DVD/HD recorder completely), but this doesn't make any difference. I've now got an unpowered splitter with a 1000 MHz filter in the socket feeding the DVD/HD and TV separately. I didn't use a powered one as this would probably amplify the bad signal. The DVD/HD player still picks up Channel 60, but the TV still doesn't - or at least the is awful. Any other thoughts?
