B&Q cheap external TV aerials

My B&Q (Wandsworth) has a lot of reduced AV kit at the moment. With all the Sky/Freeview posts at the moment I decided to self-install an external TV aerial. (The sole aim was to receive skysports news as I'm too cheap to pay for it with our sky package, and its free on freeview)

Anyway all the 'Masterplug' aerial kit seems to be greatly reduced as it looks like they are getting rid of the lot. Bought a very decent aerial and a wall mount kit for £10 and £5 respectively. Much, much cheaper than Maplins where I was looking the other day. Installation on the first floor wall outside our flat was pretty easy, and all in all gives an excellent picture. Its easy to install so long as you have access or are careful up a ladder, and happy with a bit of DIY. Just align the aerial with all the surrounding ones and you can't go wrong.


Cheers
