[QUOTE="David Liddle, post: 754364, member: 373987"] Hey everyone I've just moved into a privately rented house, not thinking about it going to have any problems I hooked my TV up (built in freeview box that works) and scanned for channels, unfortunately it found nothing, not even analogue channels :( This confused me (lol) and started checking on the digitaluk.co.uk website for more information, this told me I should be-able to pick up channels from 4 masts (one I can see! its less than 5 miles away and is visible!!). I have been told from a person that lives in the street behind me that its impossible to get any channels and go with sky (cant afford it so not doing it) I bought a indoor aerial with booster and now I can pick up 4 analogue channels with the booster turned fully up and two with the booster turned off, better than nothing I suppose! The aerial on the roof though is what looks like a high gain aerial definitely not a standard aerial, but its not picking anything up, it is not facing the way of the closest mast (berwick) rather at a guess chatton (would be my preferred choice) or selkirk (I dont really know tbh). I was just wondering on what advise I could gather from this community really on what I should be checking and what would be the way forward to maybe pick digital channels up. Below is a map of my location and the masts (from digitaluk.co.uk) Thank you in advance for any help that you can give me [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]Link and postcode removed [Admin][/COLOR][/B] [/QUOTE]
