Default aerial signal strength

The message
from The Natural Philosopher contains these words:

Plug a TV in and wiggle the aerial until you get acceptable signals on
all available channels.


You can get a good start by taking a map reading to the nearest transmitter

and use that to get an initial aim. In my experience this is often enough.

While you're up there, check the connections in the aerial terminal box
- they're often rather narsty.
