I was hoping t  try for a loft aerial ... the main reson being that because
the house is sited on a fairly steep slope (as far as builders are
concerned
it's steep) then any builders or installers say that due t  Health and
Satety rules they cannot use ladders on our house and require scaffold
towers! Of course this then takes the price of a decent aerial from maybe
?150 t  ?300 odd!

As it is I spent much of last night dissecting the rats nest that is the RF
distribution system in our house and I've managed to get a decent picture
without blocking on all of the OD channels that I can receive.
