Small Ariel for a tv?

We have a tv in our bedroom and planning on getting a small tv to wall mount in our conservatory.
We used to use an extension ariel cable we plugged into our current downstairs point and took to the tv upstairs which was a bit annoying but now stopped working.
Is there some sort of usb ariel or very small ariel we can purchase for both upstairs tv and the one we will wall mount in conservatory?
thanks

There's no such thing as a USB aerial.
There is of course many, many small TV aerial's however there's no point in recommending one as it's entirely dependant on your location and the location of the TV's within the household.
Try a cheap indoor aerial from Argos (or wherever) upstairs and then try it in the conservatory. Ideally you'd want to use an external aerial but that get's more complicated with splitters and boosters perhaps needed.0 -
We use the earlier version of this, from Argos, but aren't miles from a transmitter. On the big screen the picture is as good as when using the rooftop aerial. The booster has never been needed and my thinking was that if it didn't work, it wasn't suitable for purpose, so could be returned. (An indication of whether it works could well be the absence or presence at your local store).

Now you tell us
In that case if you still need an internal aerial for the other TV just try it on both, whichever gets the best signal gets the aerial and the other gets the Firestick.0 -
