This type of thing is usually OK in the loft but too flimsy for outdoors: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Philex-27884K4-Element-Aerial-Digital/dp/B01J1BJ4IC/ref=dp_ob_title_ce See photo here: http://www.satcure.co.uk/accs/freeview_aerials.htm

In choosing your suitable aerial, did you take into account the government's sell-off of UHF channels 50 - 60 ? This means that all channels will be squeezed between 21 - 50 inclusive. I'm guessing that this will happen by the end of the year.

If you provide your postcode I'll recommend an aerial.

Well, it's not a "split" unless two cables are coming out. And you won't receive cable TV programmes without a cable TV decoder. I assume you don't have one and are not paying a subscription, in which case what you are seeing is Freeview programmes possibly picked up by the cable acting as a...

Unfortunately, I don't understand your description. What is a "coax box"? What are the markings on the cables? What do you mean by "looks to have been split off". You have changed your room names. Is "the sitting room" now "the front room"? It's all rather vague. Photos might help.

1. Do you have a Telewest box? I.e. are we definitely discussing a cable TV system. 2. What are the markings on the coaxial cable (both cables)? Cable TV is a rental system so the house occupier shouldn't touch it. He doesn't own it. If someone has added an extension to the sitting room (i.e...

If the manufacturer states that's how it works then I don't see why not. It will need to detect the lower current draw when the TV is in standby. As Lucid states, however, there could be repercussions. For example, HDMI handshaking failure.

I thought that the Sky Q LNB signal used all the available bandwidth, including the Freeview UHF band? Wouldn't that preclude the use of the same cable for both Sky Q and Freeview?

Excellent.

SEO is mostly about content, content and content. However, you'll get demoted if your English is poor so check your spelling, grammar and punctuation. Also you'll be demoted if you don't have an up-to-date sitemap.xml page* and robots.txt page. It's helpful to give yourself a unique name such as...

Have you taken into account the need to extend the cables? I would recommend thinking very carefully about extending the LNB cables. Test the system with extended cables before moving anything. See http://www.satcure.co.uk/tech/extend_cable.htm

You are correct but with some caveats: http://electrical.theiet.org/building-regulations/part-p/faqs.cfm

I'm fairly sure that adding a new power cable run comes under Part P of the building regulations. Consequently, it must be tested and signed off by a suitably qualified electrician. Obviously, the correct type of cable needs to be run in conduit and suitably fused. I suspect that omitting a...

Great supplier. What was their response when you asked for the missing instructions? Are you certain they didn't supply a link to instructions like this company does? http://www.satcure.co.uk/useful/instructions.htm#inst

You have provided insufficient information and I hate guessing games. If you are using a portable radio inside a steel building, you can expect poor reception except next to a window. Please provide COMPLETE information about your equipment, aerial, location and any other relevant details.

DAB or VHF-FM ? Use a better aerial.

Your son should ask the house seller or your conveyancing solicitor for the wiring diagram. Considering how much he probably paid for the property, this is the very least you should expect. And see http://www.nhbc.co.uk/nhbcpublications/literaturelibrary/homeownerdocuments/filedownload,15900,en.pdf
