If you do actually have marginal reception then your best bet is to
remedy that before considering 'complex' distribution around the
house, possibly using a grouped_ amplifier
(grouped to improve the signal/noise ratio and reduce the chance of
blocking by nearby transmissions).


Where can he get one of those from?

Thread hijack

Bill - I seem to have a general failure on Mux2 i.e. ITV, CH4, E4, More 4
etc are giving me just pixellated crap

In watford, pointed at crystal palace (I think)

Its a newish (10 years old aerial) the problem seems to have developed
some time last year


Trees? Damp in cable? Aerial damaged? Building in the way? Or see

Mux 2 is on ch 22 isn't it?


I also have a ****e old aerial (must be more than 30 years old) from which
I seem to get a much better signal

No surprise. It it's that old it will be far better quality!
