Indoor TV Aerial

Windows ... just works

Good one!

Instead I got Sky. Much like Linux you arse around for ages with Freeview trying different things and listening to a thousand opinions and it never really quite does what you want, and then just like Windows you pay your money to Sky and it just works. Job done.

I will just point out that you do not need to subscribe to Sky in order to get all the usual digital channels on satellite.

a wideband aerial in the loft worked for me when i was in the sticks in an area that was meant to have limited reception. i appreciate this may not be suitable if you live in a flat.

Can anyone recommend an indoor TV aerial which will give a good enough signal for a Freeview box? Or is that just wishful thinking?

try this one.

About the best you can get for £20. But it depends on the signal strength in your area. Belive me I lived with it for a month until getting sky.. No comparison

That's too complicated a question to answer. I used to get all the channels except the BBC ones through a roof top aerial, but if I wanted to get the BBC channels I could use an internal aerial which would give me nothing but the BBC channels.

Then I moved to where I live now, and I discovered I could get some of Freeview, but only with the indoor aerial balanced on a CD rack and a pile of books in one particular caorner of the living room.

It largely depends on the area you live in. Maybe opt for a satellite dish or a cable connection?

Depends, if your in a strong signal area for DTV then a cheap bog standard set top aerial will do the job. If not then 'One for all' do one with a built in signal booster for around £20 at Comet, Dixons etc.
