Re: Aerial help for Terrestrial DTV please...

I tried connecting the cable from my big roof aerial to the usb adaptor and it showed good signal but didn't find any channels...
I take it from that the aerial isn't compatible with digital?
i just went out and got a cheapo £12 external Yagi arial and stuffed it inside the loft,works fine, but may stick it outside at some point as a few stations have a little pixelation from time to time as the weather changes.

whats the brand & product no., or rather does it have a BDA driver as standard?. link?

if its supplyed with a BDA driver (or you can find a driver for it that is)then you can use many apps
to run it with, look in its driver section and see if it mentions BDA.

as for the 1 mile or even the 1km away then thats a good thing for DVB-T reception.

when you said "it showed good signal" what do you mean by this if you couldnt lock onto a station?.

rather than retype all my advice again read pauls thread (dont know if he just gave up in the end lol)

assuming a BDA driver:
the simplest DVB-T tuner/app to try first is probably this one
