Hi Roger.
It may be possible to get your roof arial adapted though. In the long run,
if you watch any television at all, this will be necessary because of the
switch off of analogue tv starting I think from 2008. It's a case of having
your existing arial checked and probably replaced if it is an old one.
Cheers
Graham

Hi All
This is as I suspected and is not a viable proposition. I do in fact live
very close to the Brighton booster and free run the dogs past it often but
we are also by virtue of living close to the French transmitting zone
plagued by interference from their service as has been proved when indoor
aerials have been used. Therefore thank you for your help and the idea is
now forgotten by me.
Roger
Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.
