UK channels with indoor aerial in Lucan

    I have a little tv in my first floor bedroom in Lucan, with an indoor aerial connected.
    I recieve RTE 1, Net 2, TV3 and TG4.
    Today i pressed the wrong channel button on the remote and got a very snowy E4 picture.
    I am able to recieve E4, SkyOne, SkyNews (maybe others) but the picture is very snowy / noisy.
    How can I improve the signals, without installing an outdoor aerial?
    Will the boosters in the Argos catalogue do ?

    You are getting an overspill there from cable.
    In other words from a nearby NTL or chorus cable - the signal is leaking from a nearby wire.

    The only way to reasonably improve it is to connect and subscribe, a booster aerial from argos is unlikely to help.

    ahhh thats what that little box above the tv is.
    wonder if i can connect the cables in there to the tv without the gardai knocking on my door?
    LOL
    wierd one - leaking cable

    sure there is no way to boost the signal ?

    another question
    in the Argos cat. there are 2 types of boosters
    one of them plugs into the mains socket
    whats the difference ? which is better ?
