Had to change the rooftop aerial as it was made in Spain and the connector box mounted on it wasn't Devon climate proof. Apart from a new tail into the loft booster box we are still using the old coax cable. The new cable, according to the aerial rigger, merely has an extra foil screen which is essential if there is a lot of nearby electrical interference. Aerials in the loft are not recommended, a wet surface can cause a big difference in signal strength. I'm told that reception is good in Holdsworthy, but generally speaking, in Hatherleigh half a mile from me; reception is generally speaking very patchy. -- W.
