Hello all,
I have put an estimate in for a rewire. On the specs sheet from the client it had
'Loft aerial installation to receive digital FM & TV signal'
He requests a TV/FM point to be installed in 4 rooms.
I had originally omitted this from my estimate as it wasn't really something I've done commercially. I'm only used to stuff at home with existing analogue expectations..
Anyway, my client is very keen for me to take the whole job on and his asked me to reconsider if I will be able to do the arial installation etc.
So I'd like to know if anyone has had experience with this work and particularly, how they were able to test the installation.
I believe a wideband aerial is whats needed and have eyed this one up:

As for going to 4 rooms, do I just take 4 cables from the aerial, or daisy chain a couple of runs, or would a booster be needed?
The property will be unoccupied and so would be an ideal occasion for me to gain the experience of this, I just wanna make sure I have the right materials for costing.
All new cable is needed so planned to use PF100.
The client lives a few doors down and has this installed already, and I have checked online and the area is covered for freeview.. apparently.
Any advice would be great.
Many thanks for any feedback.
