Tv aerial and boosters
Hi there,
Since the windy weather and rain we have had recently all the TV's upstairs have stopped working, in the loft I have a 6 way booster that plugs
into mains and takes the main aerial and splits signal 5 ways, originally I thought booster is knackered ordered a new one and no difference, however
if I just plug the main aerial coming into the house into just one tv free view box it works? So I know the aerial is ok but perhaps not enough signal
strength to run through the booster? (even with all TV's off except one still no picture and just says poor or no signal)
Is there a way I can check or is it going to be a get up on the roof and check and possibly move the aerial?
Any help or advice is very much welcome
Cheers Greg

So is that replaceable? Or new aerial?

If you manually tune a digital television then it gives you a quantitative signal level. I have found this helpful when debugging problems of this
sort.
In my case it turned out my Panasonic DVD player put out a bunch of noise at the same frequency as ITV.
