    I've got a Phillips one I've hardly used and don't need now. Was thinking about selling it on eBay. Piece of piss to install and you won't need a new aerial.

    You've got another one? Did you buy them in a job lot or something?

    Bought my youngest a freeview tv and couldn't get any picture so bought a new inside ariel and still got nothing. Went out and then bought one of them super digital indoor ariels and still nothing . Spoke to the neighbours and they have the same problem. Apparently it's because we live in between 2 electricity pylons and no one has ever been able to get any signals since the houses were built (we've always had sky). Still it explains why my wi-fi is so crap.

    Was gonna mention that mate..I got a wee freeview box set for £15 out Argos and it works a treat, It worked with my old inside aerial, You get your usual channels plus a few extra like E4, Channel 4 plus, Itv 2 itv 4, Also music channels. No bad atall.

    Dumfries & Galloway had the 'digital switchover' ages ago now. Real pain in the arse when you start losing the signal on half the channels and have to retune the thing.

    I Don't know whether that is because D&G is a bit more rural though; our download speed is **** as well.
