TV Aerial Installation West Kingsdown

It may be a situation that your brand new home didn't have an aerial or satellite dish installed by the building company. The majority of householders in West Kingsdown are uncomfortable at the thought of working at the heights that are associated with replacing and installing a new TV aerial. It's now that you need a professional and reliable installation company to do a survey and install a satellite dish or aerial on your property.

But what systems are out there?

FREEVIEW - When the UK changed from to digital television broadcasting from analogue in 2005, television sets were required to be digital compliant to receive any programmes. If your television set wasn't digital compliant it required a set top decoder in order to receive the channels.

It matters not if you've got a digital television or a set top box; you still need to have an appropriate aerial to pick up the broadcast. In weak or low signal regions it is crucial to have the best possible aerial fitted.

Freeview, via a suitable TV antenna, offers national channels together with West Kingsdown regional programming. You should be able to enjoy up to fifteen High Definition (HD) and over seventy Standard Definition (SD) channels depending on your signal strength and region. Freeview can also receive more than thirty digital radio stations through your TV.

FREESAT - Uses a satellite dish to receive radio and television programmes so a traditional antenna is not needed. A digital satellite decoder is necessary to receive programmes, which some cutting-edge TV's will already have built in, (look for DVB-S on the specs of the TV).

To pick up the most channels you need good signal strength and quality levels, which are optimised by an appropriately sized dish and associated LNB (Low Noise Block - the attachment on the dish's arm). A bigger satellite dish when properly matched with a Low Noise Block can tune into weaker signals, giving you a better likelihood of picking up channels from different countries and broadcasters.

A basic Freesat dish and box installation in the West Kingsdown area is able to receive more than 20 HD channels, over 200 SD channels and roughly 40 radio stations.

The major satellite companies like SKY, BT and VIRGIN also feature a free service akin to Freeview or Freesat, where committing yourself to a subscription isn't generally required. A dedicated digital decoder box and appropriate satellite dish or antenna is all that's usually required.

The subscription packages offered by these providers can be adapted to suit your family or business needs, and the prices fluctuate as a result. From live shows, new movies and sports events, to music channels and exclusive TV shows, you can select from more than 400 channels and watch TV box sets and movies 24 hours a day.

Some commercial broadcasters also offer streaming content via your broadband.

You need never miss another movie or TV show by using the options on many decoder units to record directly onto an onboard hard disk drive, or to an external USB flash drive.

In order to get the best signal a television antenna must have a clear path to the main broadcasting antenna. If your home's roof is not elevated enough to allow the aerial to clear neighbouring obstacles, properties and trees, it might need to be installed on a tall pole to ensure it's raised high enough.

A qualified and experienced aerial installer is recommended to conduct any aerial installation work that is needed. To put your mind at rest look out for the letters CAI (Confederation of Aerial Industries) when you are picking an aerial installer and be confident in the knowledge that they trained to carry out any aerial installation work needed.

As with any kind of antenna, a satellite dish needs to be in a position where there are no obstructions between itself and the signal transmitter; in this instance the satellite in orbit high above West Kingsdown. Trees, buildings and other structures can affect the signal and contribute to unwelcome interference.

Technical equipment is required for the installation process to make sure the dish is aimed in the best direction, since even a couple of centimetres of error can make a massive difference to your received signal. Since the alignment of the satellite dish is critical for the best system performance, the dish will then be securely fixed in place in order to avoid any possibility of it moving in the wind.

A site survey will be carried out by the installers before any installation process to allow the fitters to put together a step-by-step plan. This should lay out the specifics of any cable entry points and the path the cabling will have to travel from the antenna or dish to the destination inside your property. This is especially vital for multi-room TV systems that use the same antenna or dish. A precise quotation for the entire installation project will be provided after this preliminary survey has been done.

The knowledge and familiarity with any signal issues and problems in the West Kingsdown area, that a locally based aerial installation team has, will be crucial. Their knowledge of any inherant signal problems in West Kingsdown means they're able to supply the right equipment to obtain maximum signal reception.

The actual installation process will see the antenna affixed to the house and strength of the signal verified. The aerial or dish will then go through some small, final tuning adjustments to gain the maximum signal quality on the TV reception meter. The aerial cabling can then be laid and fixed along its planned course, in through the entry point and terminated at the required position in your house.

Finally the connection is made to your decoder box or television and the setting up and first time installation of the system is completed. This will include the tuning and saving of all television channels available on your chosen platform.
