    We have a One for all indoor aerial that works fine when plugged straight into the TV, but when we connected up the Saorview box it can't find any channels and says there's 0% signal coming in. Has anyone got any suggestions as they would be greatly appreciated? :)

    When you say it works fine when plugged into the TV is it picking up the 4 analogue channels only (no Saorview)? If this is the case the indoor aerial may not be good enough to receive the Saorview signal.

    If it works fine for analogue TV3, the signal coming from the one for all aerial should be okay for Saorview also. I've managed to get Saorview working despite having barely watchable TG4 from the same site. Not all areas will behave like what I experienced but so long as TV3/TG4 analogue isn't particularly snowy (or you don't see occasional bursts of lines or snow on the analogue-sourced picture) then Saorview should work.

    When you moved about the one for all aerial and the Saorview receiver, it might be that the aerial's in a worse place now. Have you checked http://coverage.rtenl.ie/index.php and set the antenna facing the site that the page above recommends for you?? Placing the antenna near windows is a great help, even if they don't exactly face the Saorview site.
