more and more tellys!

Might be a daft question....

I already have a digital-compliant aerial in the loft, with 4 tvs running off it (no boosters, and working well).

The missus now wants a tv in the kitchen. I don't want to run another one off the current aerial, and don't want to have socket installed in loft for a booster.

Would there be any technical reason stopping me from putting a second aerial in the other end of the loft (about 8m from the first one, and not pointing over one another)?

Thanks in anticipation

Shouldn't be.

You can also get boosters that are powered up the downlead from a power unit behind the telly.

No reason at all. If you are in a strong signal area then this would be a sensible solution. If you're in N.Staffs then I can probably do you a really good deal on a decent aerial installed and cabled so you can keep SWMBO happy
