As a side note, with the launch of 4g it apparently knocks out some digital tv signals. Worth checking if 4g has been launched in your location. If this is the problem then I believe you may have to buy a device to block out the 4g signal.

I got one of those. It's called a Sony experia mobile telephone.

Got my terrestrial aerial sorted out bigtime last week by supergeek Jonny who trades as Aerials&More and is based in Patcham. Highly recommended and top value for money

Apologies, got a bit ahead of myself there. Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Do people still require the arial on roof? For my last few properties I have used a plug in one which sits next to the TV and gives perfect picture quality on all channels including digital.

You could get a satellite dish and freesat, much more reliable, usually

when we had an arial on the roof, we had to have 2 signal booster things because of the Southdowns, what an interesting world we live in...

I know what you mean. It blocks my 4g very effectively too.

You've got too much time on your hands
BTW I nearly busted my 28" computer screen turning it upside down to find out it was Ribery driving an upside down car

I've emailed Norsat to see if they can assist, but just wondered if any other NSC'ers have had the below issue:
Until today, i've had a Sky TV set up in my home, which fed the main TV in the lounge. Additionally I have 2 TV points around the house that picked up Digital TV free. These only worked after I had someone come round to sort out the 'booster' on the Sky box.
Having just switched to Virgin and a TiVo box today, the signal to the other 2 TVs in the house has dropped out..apparently its not so easy to do as a TiVo box has no RF option?
Anyone had a similar issue?

if your aerial signal previously ran through your Sky box, you should have an aerial cable behind the TV that used to plug into the sky box and an out cable that would have fed to your distribution amp. If you can connect these together, your freeview should work at the other TVs
