    I found / was recommended to www.tvsolutions.ie (http://www.allsys.ie) and I found them to be; professional, highly knowledgeable, with fair costing & all in all an excellent service.

    I found the chap who owns tvsolutions.ie a knowledgeable Polish man, to be honest & a good old fashioned likable hard working chap, which was very refreshing after coming across many cowboys belonging to various so-called accredited associations.

    I wish you well with your upgrade. All my best,
    Pepsie

    You will have no problem receiving all of the UK freeview stations from the Divis transmitter with a good high gain group A aerial and satellite cable such as Webro WF 100. The signal is good around Balbriggan, Rush and Naul. :) You will also be able to receive Three Rock horizontally polarised or Clermont Carn which is vertically polarised for Saorview with another slightly smaller aerial. Get quotes from the two installation companies above and the very best of luck. There are some good MBC stations FTA on satellite at 26E with English content, films, tv series etc with small Arabic subtitles which can be received with a 1.2 metre dish. Maybe a mini Inverto LNB could be inserted on a bracket beside it to receive it or 28.2E too on the same dish.

    How do you know this? Apart from at your own location. Have you done tests, or asked others, or seen reception reports here?

    I know people who live in Naul and they receive all of the Freeview stations, the signal is strong with no breakup even on the commercial stations in heavy rain and fog. I checked their equipment when I visited them during bad weather. All he will need is a ten to fifteen feet long two inch mast above the chimney and a good Group A aerial with the satellite cable I recommended above. If he is in an elevated position then even better. :)

    You can't really be sure what will be needed, without a visit to the site in question.

    It's encouraging, though, that others in the area seem to have decent reception of all muxes from Divis.

    I may have passed the OP's house recently. ;) There was a bungalow up for sale until fairly recently which was bought unless it is a new build.
