TV Signal Booster

[RosscoPCole]

Can anyone recommend me a TV signal booster. I have one already but it only picks up half the Freeview channels with BBC2 and ITV1 missing.
I would rather not have the expense of getting a new aerial put in as it is only for the bedroom TV and it is not used that much.
Thanks in advance.

If you have already got a booster, and that is not working, then another is unlikely to help, you cannot boost a signal if the signal is not there.

You need a better aerial.

Where are you? Have they switched the analogue signal off yet? If not then the Freeview signal will be boosted once the 'Digital Switch-over' happens.

Do you get ok freeview on the other TVs in the house? If so it could be a faulty booster or poor cabling from the booster. If it's the only TV using freeview then more likely it's the aerial.

Thanks for the advice guys.
It's the only TV in the house using Freeview, our other TV uses Sky.
Roughly how much would it cost to get a new aerial fitted? Or would it be more economical to get a Sky multiroom box fitted?

It might just need re-aligning. If new one needed I paid £95 a few months back and that was for new cabling too.

If you are alone in the house you could cable from the RF2 out of the Sky box to the bedroom, add a magic eye and at least then you have full viewing in both locations.

Other wise a cable feed from dish and a cheap freesat box may be more economical.
