    Can anyone recommend me a decent DTT aerial, I am living around 10km south of Claremont Cairn with Direct LOS.

    I can pretty much get RTE and TV3 and TG4 pretty solid on an old small analouge mini tv.

    Thanks

    If you're getting analogue reception of TV3/TG4 already (on an aerial?) you'll get excellent digital reception also. No such thing as a digital aerial. Aerials are different sizes depending on the frequency band they are designed to receive. Saorview is broadcast on UHF, usually in the same band as TV3 and TG4

    Honestly, try using a piece of coathanger for it. Or make an aerial from a piece of electrical wire. Just have it facing out a northern window. If the signal breaks up a little bit, the Clermont Carn transmitter is going to substantially increase in strength over the next year or two.

    Most of the shop bought aerials like the one-for-alls etc are overpriced and don't even work well for Clermont Carn as those aerials can't be aligned up-down instead of the usual left-right.
