Hi

I am just wondering what is the best option and cheapest for installing a freeview aerial or satellite in a coastal country area north of Tutukaka in Northland.

I would preferably like to get Freeview HD so i would like to know if there is a good UHF aerial that can receive good reception in a country area.

Thanks

Hi, unless you are up realy high on a hill you won't get uhf freeview HD in tutukaka. It's only transmitted from mt parahaki in whangarei and it's aimed away from you towards the City.

don't mess with me.... i'm the hd insider....
