One of the first things needed to be done on moving in 6 years ago was to have 
a new aerial fitted.  Two years later, when I discovered that we were within 
DTV cover I called in a different aerial contractor, who discovered that my 3 
year old aerial was made in Spain and the contents of the junction box 
mounted on it , which included a small printed circuit card, had corroded. 
There being no provision for a cable entry seal.  Aerial replaced, DTV 
downlead to amplifier/distro box in the loft installed and the result is a 
superb quality picture - rarely watched due to the brain-dead programme 
content most of the time :(
