Currently I receive analogue form Hannington( 16km ESE) with an internal aerial + amplifier. I get no Digital channels. Will the DSO boost Hannington's digital signal or will I need a full external aerial?
How can one tell if an aerial is A or B just by looking?

Brian Davies: An exact location (preferrably in the form of a post code) is needed in order to give any degree of accuracy. External aerials are generally preferred, but indoor aerials do function effectively in some locations. The design of the aerial may have some bearing.
The first stage of switchover at Hannington happened last Wednesday and BBC standard definition channels are now at full power. On your digital receiver, manually tune to channel 45. You may need to move your aerial to improve the signal.

Thanks Andy, I will probably wait and see what happens. Do you still suffer from the same problems, and if so which tuners do you recommend?

Nick: I have a Topfield PVR and I also repair them, so I see many different models. At some stage, a different tuner module was used in the Topfield range. The old tuners work fine for me here in Fleet, but the newer ones only receive 3 muxes reliably. I suspect that the newer tuners will work fine after the DSO completes.
