Re: Aerials
Hi Donald. Thought you may have something to say on the topic after seeing a picture of all the aerials on your house.
Thanks for the info. I see satellite as a challenge, and I expect it to be really difficult; I have very little expectation as to what I will end up with. Its like radio ham for sat but without the need to learn morse code! I'll put it up and see what's out there.
I have heard roumers that sat is tipped to be the HD freeview medium of choice, so I'll be ahead of the curve I hope.
One question that has occurred to me is wheter there is any spacing needed between FM and UHF aerials? I wouldn't want them interfering.
I live on a hill and can see the repeater transmitter, so I will not get a particularly hi gain UHF aerial, and will use omnidirectional radio receivers.
I had wondered if it is better to run separate cables, or to use a loftbox multiplexing amp.You have already implied that I don't need a mast head (external) amp prior to a loft box.
Still none the wiser about AM radio. But that is more just a point of interest, as it is well nigh obsolete for all but hams, hospitals and community projects.
I am going to get new cable all round as I am a believer that the war is usually won or lost on the cable.
