    You'd need to make sure that your analogue reception is very good to start with, and that your reception comes from Divis or Brougher Mountain.

    If the aerial is in good condition (no elements missing, any masthead amplifier working correctly) then it would probably be better to go down the Freesat route rather than spend a load of money on an aerial upgrade that will give no certainties.

    Best thing would be to check with neighbours and friends locally.
