BUT - A booster can only boost a signal that's there and strong enough to be boosted.

If the antenna is digitala nd has a high enough gain to pick up the signals in an area then you don;t need a booster.. There is a website out there that you can enter your postcode and it'll tell you which transmitter is closest, which channels you should be able to get and what sort of antenna you'd need. I'm sure someone will come along (Unless you want to search the older posts) and tell you which it is..
