TV Aerial Installation Tetbury

It might be that you have just purchased a new house where no aerial has been fitted or it's been taken away by the sellers. The installation of this type of equipment mostly involves working at height and not all homeowners in Tetbury are prepared to tackle this sort of DIY work. It is at this point that you need a reliable installation specialist to conduct a survey and install an aerial on your house.

But precisely what TV systems are out there?

FREEVIEW - Since the United Kingdom changed to digital television broadcasting in 2005, all TV sets sold from 2008 onwards had to be digital ready and include a built-in digital decoder. For older televisions a separate decoder was needed.

Even with a suitable digital television or a set top box, you still need a TV aerial to receive the channels being broadcast. In areas with a weak or low signal it is crucial to have the best possible aerial or TV antenna installed.

Freeview features all of Great Britain's leading channels combined with Tetbury regional channels. It is possible, depending on your signal strength and specific location, to receive up to 90 channels; over 70 Standard Definition (SD) and up to 15 High Definition (HD) channels with Freeview. Freeview also provides more than thirty digital radio stations, regional and national for you to hear via your TV.

FREESAT - Freesat uses a satellite dish to receive radio and television channels so a normal antenna is not required. Certain televisions come with an in-built DVB-s decoder, but generally you will need a digital decoder linked to the satellite dish to watch programmes.

To pick up the maximum amount of channels you need good signal strength and quality levels, which are boosted by a correct size of satellite dish and associated Low Noise Block (LNB - the attachment on the arm of the satellite dish. It is possible to receive more free digital channels from various TV stations by using a larger satellite dish and higher gain LNB to receive weaker TV signals.

A basic Freesat dish and box installation in Tetbury is capable of receiving over 200 channels in SD, more than 20 HD channels and nearly forty radio stations.

It is possible to enjoy the free services of VIRGIN, BT and SKY satellite with a similar number of channels to Freeview or Freesat without having to register for their premium content. A dedicated digital decoder box and appropriate satellite dish or TV antenna is all that is generally needed.

The premium services can be chosen to suit your family or business needs and the costs fluctuate in line with the package chosen. You're able to enjoy anything from new releases and live sports, to exclusive box sets and TV shows and practically everything you would need to keep everybody entertained, from a selection of over four hundred digital channels.

It's also possible to connect into different services via your broadband for even more variety of special features and programming.

If you wish to record programmes to view at your leisure, you can either use a built in hard drive on some digital decoder boxes, or plug in an external hard drive, like a USB flash drive, to store and save your favourite movie or box set until you've got the time to watch it.

A clear path is necessary from the broadcasting antenna to your TV aerial so as to receive the strongest possible signal. To do this may require the aerial to be affixed to the highest point of your home and possibly even positioned upon a taller pole to lift it above any obstructions or neighbouring properties.

It's suggested that any aerial installations in Tetbury are done by an experienced aerial installer. For peace of mind look for the letters CAI (Confederation of Aerial Industries) when you are choosing an aerial installation firm and be confident in the knowledge they undergone training to perform any aerial installation work that you need.

As with any sort of antenna, a satellite dish needs to be installed where there are no obstructions between itself and the signal transmitter; in this case the satellite orbiting high above the earth. An improperly situated satellite dish can receive an inferior signal by being to some extent obstructed by trees, buildings and other obstacles that hinder reception.

The satellite dish installation calls for accurate alignment, so the aerial technician will perform tests with specialised equipment to make certain this is done correctly. A satellite dish installation professional in Tetbury will ensure you experience the best signal strength and firmly affix the dish to your house so that it cannot move.

An on-site survey will be carried out by the installers before any type of installation to permit the technicians to finalise a step-by-step plan. This will include a cable routing plan from the television antenna or satellite dish and the perfect point of entry for the cable into your house. The on-site survey is crucial if you need more than one room to be provided with a TV. When this has been done the aerial installers should be able to present you with a definitive estimate for the work.

Choosing a local aerial fitters in the Tetbury area will mean that they will have the experience and knowledge of any signal strength problems and other issues associated with your area. Using this knowledge they will supply equipment that ensures the best possible signal clarity and reception.

The actual installation process sees the antenna fitted to your home and signal strength analyzed. To get the best coverage there'll be some fine adjustments to the positioning of the dish or aerial. TV wiring will be run and secured to your property and the entry point needs to be drilled and sealed to keep water out.

The final stage of the installation will be connecting everything to your digital decoder unit or television and the setting up and testing of all equipment. The installation is finally accomplished when all the TV and radio channels have been searched for and saved to your device.

Aerial Repositioning Tetbury

To improve reception in Tetbury, TV aerials should be aligned properly. This will ensure that they get the best signal, without signal bounces. However, if your aerials are not aligned correctly, you could end up losing some channels. The following tips can help you adjust your TV aerial correctly.

Quite often, poorly aligned TV aerials can cause the image on your TV to look like a double image. An issue which is referred to as ghosting. The problem occurs when two signals are sent from the aerial and the signal from the TVs are at different timings. If this happens, you should reposition the TV aerial.

The simplest way to get your aerial repositioned is to hire a professional. A qualified TV aerial installer will be able to give you advice on the best placement and will be able to give you a quotation. Another way to fix the problem is to run a new coax cable outside and fit a new aerial socket through the wall. It is important to seal the new aerial socket properly to prevent damp.

TV aerial repositioning is a quick and easy process for a specialist installer in Tetbury. First of all, you should know the sort of aerial you need. The most popular kind in the United Kingdom is the Yagi aerial. This aerial type has a long boom-rod with an appropriate angle, and features metal pieces which act as semi-conductors. This means that the TV signal is picked up by these metal pieces and transmitted down the boom. The result is a wider beam of signal that you can see and hear.
