Wow, simply wow.
I called up AT800 and explained my problems, they have agreed to send me a filter for free which is great but due to my location they are pretty sure it will not suffice.
Their advice, subscribe to Cable/Sky or get Freesat.
Great, so not only have I spent the best part of £500 on 2 aerials and 2 set-top boxes, I am not told I need to spend more money if I wish to watch TV.
This whole DSO has been a complete con and as usual it is the public who pay the cost just so the mobile operators can make millions using the spectrum.
Words cannot describe how annoyed I am right now, and I dread to think of the ear-bashing I am going to get from the wife tonight when I get home.
Thank you BBC, Government & Vodafone, you useless inept bunch of money grabbing parasites

Hi guys,
Thanks for all the replies.
I am located in Norwich city centre at the top of Silver Road, the irony is I can see a mobile transmitter from my kitchen window (Mousehold Lane).
Looks as if I will need to contact that AT800 website, thanks for your help.
I am not sure if that mobile transmitter has only just started supporting 4G but up until a few days ago I had pretty much perfect reception 24/7 but now the wife has been complaining about TV during the day and it also happens in the evening when I am at home.
I am also aware there is a relay very close to my location but I was (and am) pointed out to Tacolneston and am getting all the muxes from there, the relay does not support com7 afaik.
Technology hey, more trouble than it is worth!
I will contact AT800 and hopefully get a device for free, I had a quick look online and they can be purchased for about £20 so I am a bit happier now even if AT800 do not send me one for free, I was dreading another rooftop aerial / set top box upgrade!
Thank you all! (I will pop back and update you if my issues can be resolved)
I am not too bothered but the Wife has been moaning about it (she needs her daytime TV fix) and subsequently I am being blamed for it!
