But what kind of television system do you require?

Freeview, Freesat or Commercial

FREEVIEW - In 2005 the UK switched from analogue to digital television broadcasting and all TV's sold from 2008 were required to be digital broadcast compliant. For older televisions an independent decoder box was needed.

Even with a suitable digital television or a set top box, you still need a TV aerial to pick up the channels being broadcast. In weak or poor signal regions it's imperative to have the best possible TV aerial fitted.

You'll be able to receive up to fifteen High Definition (HD) and over seventy Standard Definition (SD) channels dependent on your location and signal strength. It is also possible to play more than thirty digital radio stations broadcast from all around the UK.

FREESAT - Freesat uses a satellite dish to pick up radio and TV channels so a normal TV aerial isn't necessary. A satellite decoder is necessary to pick up broadcasts, which certain cutting-edge TVs will have built in, (look for DVB-S on the specs of the television).

Commercial TV Packages

Satellite Dish Installation Ashbourne

Even though a satellite dish receives signals from an orbiting satellite, it still needs as few obstructions as possible to receive a decent signal. An improperly located satellite dish can receive a weak signal when it is to some extent obstructed by trees, buildings and other obstacles that affect the reception.

Specialist equipment is required on installation to make sure the dish is pointing in the correct direction, as even an error of a couple of centimetres can make a tremendous difference to the quality of your signal. By diligently aligning your dish to obtain the maximum strength of signal, the dish will then be solidly mounted to avoid any movement as a result of the effects of the wind.

What Does Aerial Installation Entail?

Any installation process, satellite dish or TV antenna will need an on-site survey so the installers can plan the task. This should include a cable routing plan from the aerial or dish and the perfect point of entry for the cables into your home. If you have multi-room television needs the on-site survey is critical to provide you with the best possible reception for each room. A definitive estimate for the entire project should be provided after this has been carried out.
