TV Aerial Installation Plymouth

It could be a situation that your new home didn't have a satellite dish or TV antenna fitted by the builders. Not everybody in Plymouth is ready to work at the heights involved in a DIY aerial installation. This is the time when you need to locate a professional aerial or satellite installation technician.

But what kind of system would you prefer?

FREEVIEW - In 2005 the United Kingdom converted to digital television broadcasting and every TV sold from 2008 was required to be digital broadcast compliant. If your TV set was not digital ready it required a set top decoder box to receive the channels.

It does not matter if you have a set top box or a digital television; you still need a suitable TV aerial to receive the broadcast. The appropriate TV aerial for your region is of huge importance to be sure of getting a strong enough signal from the nearest TV transmitter.

Freeview, through a suitable antenna, provides national programmes together with Plymouth regional programmes. It is possible, dependant on your signal strength and specific location, to get as many as 90 channels; over seventy Standard Definition (SD) and up to fifteen High Definition (HD) channels with Freeview. It can also receive in excess of 30 digital radio stations.

FREESAT - Uses a satellite dish to receive radio and television channels so a normal antenna isn't necessary. A digital decoder is necessary to receive broadcasts, which some high-tech TVs have already got built in, (watch out for DVB-S on the specifications of the television).

Satellite signal strength and quality are vitally important and this is determined by the diameter of the satellite dish and functionality of the LNB (Low Noise Block - the small attachment on the dish's arm) . It is possible to receive more free digital channels from various countries and broadcasters by putting up a larger dish and higher gain LNB to pick up weaker signals.

In the Plymouth area you will be able to watch nearly 300 digital channels (200+ SD, 20+ HD and 40+ Radio stations) using a basic installation of a Freesat dish and box.

The premium satellite TV companies like BT, SKY and VIRGIN also offer a free service much like Freesat or Freeview, where getting tied into a subscription is not normally required. You will need a dedicated digital decoder from the TV provider and an appropriate satellite dish or aerial to tune into their channels.

Prices vary across the premium range of subscription services and can be altered to fulfill the needs of your family. With over four hundred channels including movies, live sports and concerts and even exclusive box sets and TV shows, there is something for everybody to enjoy.

It's also possible to access different services using your broadband connection for an even better variety of special features and programmes.

Whatever service you plump for, commercial, Freesat or Freeview, there are methods to record directly to your digital decoder box, or to an external drive, to watch at a later date.

A television aerial needs to have as clear a route to the broadcasting station as possible in order to gain the best possible signal. To do this may require the aerial to be fitted to the highest point of your property and possibly even placed on top of a taller pole to lift it above any nearby obstacles.

A professional and qualified aerial installation contractor is recommended to conduct any aerial installation work that you need. To put your mind at rest look for the letters CAI (Confederation of Aerial Industries) when you are choosing an aerial installation firm and be confident in the knowledge that they have trained to execute any work needed.

Even though a satellite dish gets signals from an orbiting satellite, it still needs there to be no obstacles to receive a good signal. An improperly positioned satellite dish can weaken a signal when it is partially impeded by trees, buildings and other obstacles that hinder the reception.

In the course of the installation the fitting team will use specialised devices to optimise signal strength by accurate placement and alignment of the dish. A satellite installation specialist in Plymouth will make sure you get the best signal strength and correctly fix the dish to your property so that it cannot move.

Any type of installation process, television antenna or satellite dish will involve a site survey so that the installers can plan the task. The survey will identify entry points to the property for the cabling required, safe cable routing and reliable attachment points for the satellite dish or TV antenna. If you've got multi-room TV needs the survey is crucial to provide you with the best reception for every user. After this preliminary survey you will be presented with a definitive quote from the installation company.

A local aerial installers in Plymouth will have familiarity with the signal strengths and issues affiliated with your area. Their local knowledge of any signal strength problems in the area means they can provide the right equipment for maximum signal reception.

The strength of the signal will be tested once the satellite dish or TV aerial is placed in situ. There could be some fine tuning necessary throughout this process to make certain of the best coverage. The cable entry holes will then be drilled and weatherproofed, and the cable passed through and mounted securely along its path to the satellite dish or aerial.

Finally a connection is made to your television or decoder and the setting up and installation of the equipment is completed. The installation is concluded when all of the TV channels are searched for and stored on your decoder.

Consumers in Plymouth can be assured knowing that by picking an aerial installer who is trained and certified by a trade organisation within the aerial industry. The CAI, as alluded to earlier, ensures that its registered members uphold and abide by aerial industry standards by offering Diploma Level courses and professional accreditation.

All CAI members are checked and vetted before they are permitted to join. This provides consumers with confidence in the skills and trustworthiness of the installers to complete the work to the highest standards possible. It is furthermore a requirement of CAI membership that all work carried out should be guaranteed for a minimum of a 1 year.

TrustMark, the Government acknowledged service, is another method of tracking down the best TV aerial and satellite installers in Plymouth, or anyplace in the United Kingdom. When you observe the TrustMark logo for signal reception and the home entertainment industry it means the aerial installers must already be an accredited member of the Confederation of Aerial Industries, for without this the TrustMark logo cannot be legitimately displayed. The scheme provides an extra layer of trust for clients and gives them the knowledge they're employing competent, safe and professional installers.

Yagi Television Aerials Plymouth

In Devon one of the most widely used sorts of aerial is the Yagi antenna. Where the TV signal strength is about average the Yagi TV antenna is a decent choice. In areas with a mediocre signal strength, it isn't wise to go with a Yagi aerial. All of the available TV channels will not always be received by a Yagi TV aerial, even when the signal strength is reasonably good.
