You need a UHF aerial, a upc aerial won't work.

No, the UPC (mmds?) aerial on the roof will not work - different frequency range (MMDS 2500-2700 MHz). UHF aerial (470-790 MHz) will be required for Saorview as Extinction posted above.

Use the Saorview coverage checker to find your nearest Saorview recommended transmitter and its frequency. This will determine which UHF aerial group will be required at your location.
