Hey guys, I'm having a bit of trouble getting a decent signal for freeview HD at the moment.
I'm using a panasonic DMR X350 as my receiver which goes into a wall plug then upstairs to a splitter box which is all connected to a relatively decent UHF antenna (about 1.5m long 40ish elements). All the connections I can see look to be relatively good but I haven't had an indepth check.
The antenna is in the ceiling as opposed to the roof, would this have a big effect on reception?
I've checked the coverage maps on freeview's site and it says very likely for both the sky tower and out west, I'm in epsom. On the signal condition I'm getting about 2/10 for signal quality and 3/10 for signal strength for the TVNZ channels, the TV3/4 channels are only 1 better for each and I don't get prime at all.
I've been up in the ceiling a few times and I've tried to go for both the sky tower and waiatarua with similar results.
Any help you guys can give me would be much appreciated.
