In our house one of the tv's downstairs connects to the aerial and can receive Freeview via the built in tuner with no problems at all.
However the tv in the bedroom can pick up a couple of channels through a Freeview box and even then gets a very poor signal, most of the time it's unwatchable.
I thought perhaps the Freeview box was old and knackered so I purchased a new one today with built in Freeview HD (although I don't think I'm in the catchment area yet
)
Anyway, the signal is still very weak and when scanning for channels I can only seem to pick up BBC 4, the odd Freeview channel and some radio stations.
The aerial for the property is on the roof and I think is pointing in the correct direction - must be ok as the tv downstairs is fine. There's an aerial point in the bedroom which I've connected the new Freeview box to so I'm guessing that the link between here and the aerial is an issue?
Some advice on what to check would be most appreciated please
EDIT - just tried scanning for channels and it's picked up no channels!
