I really, really don't want to split the existing co-ax cabling any more than it already is and have a want for Freeview in an upstairs room.

What's the best internal aerial?

If you go to Maplins or Argos there's dozens of potential money-pits - especially when you look at a trade site such as this which advocates an £8 unit: http://www.aerialsandtv.com/onlineaerials.html#Set...

So - does anyone have any suggestions? I have checked the signal strength and am looking at pretty much 100 on most multiplexes(?) except for a couple which are 99.

It's not so much can't as in really don't want to. It's got an amplifier on it already to 3 sets and the cabling is all internal. If I add an extra then I need to change the amplifier - take the cabling out of the eaves and then back in. Extra expense for a TV which may only be watched for 1 hr a week.

It was one of those thoughts that as I've got a TV, how do I get a signal to it at minimum expense.
