Title: Freeview is bollocks Post by: STFCBird on Friday, February 23, 2007, 12:39:52 yup it's crap Have you tried movingthe arial and re-scanning?
Title: Freeview is bollocks Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, February 23, 2007, 12:46:26 freeview is ace. it's obviously your aerial that's a bit rubbish. you could try a signal booster, that might help?
birdy i can get you televesion x codes so you can watch it for free. i think that would be such a special occassion it would warrant popping open the pringles Title: Freeview is bollocks Post by: tans on Friday, February 23, 2007, 12:55:30 its a communal aerial and when the weather is bad it loses everything ie thie signal etc, and still the old coffindodgers wont let us get a dish
Title: Freeview is bollocks Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, February 23, 2007, 12:57:42 There's your answer then
Title: Freeview is bollocks Post by: genf_stfc on Friday, February 23, 2007, 13:02:56 if its a communal aerial, the signal strength is lost every time the cable splits. You might have luck by getting a booster, but otherwise your only solution is just to have a better communal aerial I'm afraid. You might even find that you get better analogue TV signal with a little indoor aerial, although these are useless for digital, since everytime you bump into it and move it it loses the channels.

Make your own aerial out of coat-hangers (metal obviously), stick it on the roof and run a normal cable down to your window. Sorted.

Skys contract with NTL was up for renewal, and Sky were demanding double as much money from NTL to renew it, who told them to get stuffed. This means that there will be no more Sky on NTl, so no SSN, Sky 1, Sky 2 or Sky News Title: Freeview is bollocks Post by: STFCBird on Wednesday, February 28, 2007, 22:56:39 Quote from: "Walrus" Quote from: "simon pieman" birdy i can get you televesion x codes so you can watch it for free Please, for the sake of every man on here, please expand. :| He lied Walrus, I've never seen these so called codes he was going to give me!
