Richard: Yes, you can get non-powered splitters:
Television Aerial Boosters / Amplifiers, Splitters, Diplexers & Triplexers
You could try disconnecting the amp and connecting the aerial to one TV and see if it improves matters.

Alan Philpott:
lots of people are asking the same....you need to wait now until the 22nd feb and retune,the signal will be lots stronger then

Alan Philpott: Might you be in the "Guildford Notch"; the side of the low power pre-switchover digital transmitter that throws out much less signal in that direction?

Hi, thanks for the suggestions. We actually changed nothing with the cabling between when it worked and now that it doesnt, so I am not sure how it can be that. We have two devices: a TV and a freeview recorder.
At no point did we get the TV working but we were assuming that was something to do with how we had the system set up. The recorder though is the interesting one- we only got freeview channels for the first time on the switch over date. We have no amplifiers or splitters. The strange thing currently is that while it still claims to have no signal it always knows what program is on (though this might be residual).
We had perfect signal for several a few hours before loosing it again (indeed it was better than I ever remember)
Any thoughts would be appreciated

Richard: If you simply have a powered splitter then the amplification obtained from these devices is minimal and as such they can really be looked at as a no-loss splitter, however this may still take the signal over the top if its already very high, so all you require to do is fit an attenuator in line with the splitters input
and that will retain the isolation the outputs have from each other in the same way as at present. (this always being desirable)
I would suggest about a 10dB attenuator should suffice, although variable types are the best as you can trim them to exactly whats required, albeit of course that they are not precision devices and tend to be a bit crude when adjustments are being made. (have to be adjusted really slowly).
