tv/aerial

Postby gina59 » Mon Aug 24, 2015 12:35 pm

I have a old portable tv in my bedroom which I use to watch dvds. I have just had a new aerial fitted,so thought that I would set the tv up in the bedroom to watch spanish tv. Unfortunately it wont pick up any stations, do I need a digi box or a new type tv. thanks in advance
My spelling is Wobbly. It's good spelling but it Wobbles, and the letters get in the wrong places.

You can add a cheap TDT box which will give you the TV channels. Newer TVs have them built in so you don't need the external box.

Hi, I bought this http://www.amazon.es/dp/B00EZ5PZN8/ref= about six months ago, although the interface is very basic it has excellent image quality. I wanted to be able to record some Spanish tv which works very well, I have an external HD plugged into it for that purpose. If you do not want to record programs then cheaper boxes are readily available.

whilst on the subject, what would be a reasonable amount of money to spend to have an Arial installed in a house.

ive got an Arial in my home but it needs adjusting to pick up the signal and I would like to split the feed to another room.

What would people expect to pay for this, if the antenna is already up on the house?
