UPC Analogue/Digital Upgrade.

Thinking of getting Digital value, but not sure what way house was wired in the past as only here a few years and it was rented out before.

The round unit under eves has a cable coming down the wall in thru front window and attached to this box.



must get an F connector and connect tv and see if any juice in it.

the thing is my tv is not connected to this box but to a cable coming out of the wall in one of the alcoves. (chimney in centre of house)

1. Would the existing cable be suitable for digital or do I need a a re-wire, all looks kinda dodgy to me. Reception poor on 2/3 channels esp living.

2. If I book a service call will the re-wire be free.

They'll dump that box and give you a new one as a matter of course. What's the quality of the cable coming into the house?

Seems ok but could be *clinched* at side of window frame. If I go digital will they leave me with the old wiring for analogue
