Just bought my daughter a new tv for her room with built in freeview. Could have sworn she had an aerial point in her room, but she doesn't.
Has anyone got good results with freeview & a 'booster' type aerial ? If so any recommendations ?
Cheers, Simon.

we sell a couple, but it depends on signal strength to wether they work or not.

a. where do you live
b. what transmitter do you recieve signal from

Can you elaborate ?
Live in WV16 6DG postcode.
God knows where the transmitter is, possibly the Wrekin ?

My daughter has an indoor booster aerial for her Freeview TV and it works fine but we do have an almost direct line of sight to our nearest transmitter so I'm sure that helps.

you sould be coming off sutton coldfield, which is a wide band aerial.
reception in your area looks fine on the band guide.

You can find out what channels are strong and a few other things here: http://www.ukfree.tv/txlist.php. I have much better luck getting a good digital piture than an analogue one with an indoor aerial.

I'm utterly shocked. It's working fine with the booster aerial I had already, positioned in the window. Thanks chaps.
