FWIW I've had a good experience with loft aerials I'm in an an
elevated position in Leeds LS27 and at one time I was getting good
results from Bilsdale West Moor 40 miles away directly North over flat
countryside, but an aerial for Emley Moor 10 miles away needed to be
higher up since I was looking straight into the hill behind me.

I'm in Leeds LS16 one of the highest bits of Leeds, we have a direct
line of sight to Emley Moor- maybe 15-20 miles as the crow flies?

When we moved in the aerial was a settop aerial blanched in the loft on
a box. The picture was ok really, but not brilliant. I replaced it with
larger but fairly cheap aerial mounted on the internal wall in the loft-
nothing but a few roof timbers ad the felt and tiles in the way.

Get a decent picture now.
