    External aerial basically required particularly to the south of the town; but its receivable.

    Yes you can recieve DTT in Maynooth, using just a digital antenna and u you will need a decoder as well

    Don't mind that post, there's no such thing as a digital aerial. There's 2 types: good and bad:)

    What's good for analogue is good for digital and vice versa.

    A grid aerial placed outdoors should do the trick, but how strong is your analogue signal right now? Details of this will be useful.

    See sticky on aerials.

    As Myob says best is an external aerial in the attic if you have to have internal.
