Any experience of this ? its £80
thanks0 -
My parents live in an area that doesn't always get a good signal for Freeview (Witham , Essex), they are also rather 'low down' , behind trees/hills which doesn't help matters. They used to have a Panasonic freeview box until it recently just 'gave up'. Prior to that a number of boxes were unable to even collect a signal when connected to their aerial. The Panasonic did a decent job, but failed to get the extra ITV channels.
So I had to find them an alternative, since the Panasonic went 'bang' and wasn't looking forward to it as I was certain to hit problems. I decided to go for the Digifusion FRT102 from Currys at £25 (don't ask why!!!).. I plumbed it all in last night and was very pleased with the outcome. It picked up all channels with a decent signal, including the extra ITV ones.
So a big thumbs up... :-)0 -

Bringing this back to the top as my freeview box in my bedrom fell off the shelf and dragged the booster aerial along with it. It comlpetely snapped the co-ax connector in both units so now I need a new one of each.
where's the best value aeriel and box at the moment?
Best I can see is £19.99 in my local Asda this morning for the box, and an aerial from Argos online http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10001&langId=-1&catalogId=10651&productId=708648 for the same? £40 all in - is this the best I can do?? or does anyone know of any better deals?
My freeview reception is pretty good - so the aerial doesn't have to be a super duper one
Any help appreciated, thank youI have no more money to give - all you companies out there - do your worst - I give in!!0 -
You don't need an amplified aerial unless you are running more than one telly off a single connection specially if you say your reception is good.0
