TV question

P

Hi all -

I just bought a TV (digital, with freeview etc). Well, then I realised I need an antenna - which I went and bought, the one with two antannae and a flat rectangular flap like top which can be turned around to tune -

anyway, I just get 4 channels and verrrrrrry poor video (ghosty and good audio)

ANy ideas anyone as to what I should do?

Thanks!!

Hi Bug, I seem to recall that digital TVs work best with the roof mounted digital receiver antennas. With only 4 channels, it seems that you're picking up the old analogue signal, which suggests you have not bought a digital antenna for your Freeview TV. Have a look at this link, which is a digital antenna from ASDA: http://direct.asda.com/One-For-All-Freeview-TV-Antenna/000587907,default,pd.html?cm_mmc=gb-_-merch-_-404704-_-SV9215

Bear in mind that if you are in an area that receives a poor quality digital signal then you may also need to buy a booster as well. I'm just thinking though, if you're in uni accommodation they should have a socket that you can plug your digital TV into that should link it to the building's digital TV aerial.
