What sort of reception can be expected with freeview on a caravan aerial as up to now no signal has given a picture from a number of locations.

Peter Noble: You should get excellent reception from three transmitters Waltham, Sandy Heath and Belmont (less so until 23 Nov 11).
However you will need to mount the aerial externally, a set-top aerial will not work well inside a metal box, such as a caravan.
