Thanks Briantist & Les, how much does the installation usually cost?
We'd need 3 TV's linked up, preferably with recording, pause live tv etc, might as well go the whole hog as they say.

thank you both for all your help, i think i will take your advice Les and ask for a quote from a few installers, tell them what you've told me and see what the pricing options are.
Thanks for the link Briantist, i'll check that out at home, Argos is blocked at work

I'm not sure that I'm tuned into the right transmitter or not, my box is picking up bbc channels on band 43 and the rest on band 50?
the signal on 43 is terrible, at the moment it is so intermittent that i can't retune the programs, it flashes between 4% and 0% with rare flashes of 22%
band 50 is not much better strength wise, 8%, but the signal quality is 100% so i am able to tune and watch these channels ok.
am i on the wrong transmitter? is there anything i can do to find the right transmitter, or get a better signal strength on the transmitter i am on?
also, can someone tell me why we are the first town to switch over but we have only a quarter of the channels of people at say harrington that havn;t even officailly switched over yet? they can get UKgold, Dave etc and we're stuck with the bare minimum?
