You can get splitting devices to run two receivers from one aerial in most
dealers. I believe Argos may have them as well. They're not fancy. They're
just small boxes with a few coils and capacitors inside that make sure the
signal is divided between the two or more receivers efficiently without any
reflected signals getting in the way.

Two separate cables from the one aerial is incorrect and would not give as
good results as a proper splitter. It'd also be a waste of cable.

If you're in London, make sure the aerial is mounted horizontally and
pointed at Wrotham where the transmitter is.



Not quite. Wrotham transmits Mixed polarisation but you might find it
simpler to mount your aerial horizontally. If your in parts of South
London, Crystal palace may give you better results.

Phone the BBC Engineering
Department for the bearing and for general advice.

If this is too much, you could always go the whole hog and get D.A.B.


Not if your talking about hi-fi reception;(....
