No outside aerial so how will I get freeview??

annaangeluk_2 · 2010-04-11 23:40:18

Hi all, I've just bought two new tv's, one for the living room and one for the bedroom both with built in freeview. I've come to connect them and just discovered that I don't have an aerial socket! I've currently got virgin but was hoping to cancel that to pay for the tv's! What the heck do I do now?!?! I don't even know…

Ah! eight directors a dipole, and a reflector....

but no balun

You only need a balun if the impedance of the antenna doesn't match the impedance of the cable. There are plenty of good aerial designs that don't need to use a balun and this is probably one of them.
