I dont even have a tv aerial connected to the tv - we are 100% satellite delivery (apart from IPlayer on the LG telly for the missus to watch some classic Dr Who at weekends!)
When we moved here we only had the terrestrial aerial. After a week of half a service from Selkirk Id had enough of the awful programming so threw a Sky dish up, and removed the antenna connection!

MrDish1 I used to do TV DXing but since cramming all Freevew transmissions into the lower part of the uhf band releasing spectrum for 5G phones there's a lot a co-channel problems. Also the choice of channels only differs for local news from one area to the next. The range and quality of programmes via Freesat at 28.2E exceeds Freeview. I do have a couple of antennas up for Freeview. One faces my local transmitter at Ridge Hill [29kms] and the other faces Mendip [94kms].
