Below are all of Hertfordshaz's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.This is one is going to sound stupid but here goes. My TV aerial flylead goes into a non HD DVD Freeview recorder and then a lead comes out of there into the back of my HD TV. I have been waiting for the day when HD Freeview broadcasts from Sandy Heath - which is soon - but now I am wondering if routing it through a non HD recorder box will affect my ability to receive HD?
Also, my house is wired for the TV aerial in three rooms but as soon as I connect more than one Freeview TV up, the signal is too weak to deal with it. Will this improve after the March switchover?

Thanks Mike
My house was built 8 years ago with the areial cables "built in" and outlets in three rooms. In the loft there are just three aerial leads with the connectors attached. We have just used a three way splitter because we don't have power up there. I've tried adding a booster at the TV end but that isn't working at all. Do you still think the digital switchover will boost the power enough to feed all three? Or is there another way which doesn't need power in the loft? The picture when it is not split and its only feeding one TV is great, but I can't get a decent picture on the second TV when the splitter is added. I've not even attempted the third yet !!

Hi
When will we actually see an increase in power - tomorrow or when it is all finished at the end of the year?
Also, what time will things change around tomorrow?

Hi. I am currently getting signals from Sandy Heath having moved from the Hertford transmitter to get Freeview. Does this mean that after April 2012 I can go back to the Hertford transmitter? Will it have a limited freeview programme range or the full thing? thanks
