I have bad reception on the PVR in my bedroom the aerial is in the loft and the area is a poor signal area i currently don't recieve ITV1, C4, ITV2, E4, MORE 4, FILM 4 and probably more what can i do to improve this? I can't move the aerial outside as it is not my house.

Have you got a decent digital aerial...........or just the old analogue one?

[ChuckFickens]

too many variables to answer really

is the aerial 100% correctly aligned?
is it a digital aerial?
is it a decent aerial or cheap one?
is the cable high quality?
are any plugs/sockets on the lead good quality and fitted well?

If you can answer yes to all of the above then you can try a signal booster, but if it's a poor signal they don't always work (your boosting the noise as well as the good part of the signal) or you can get your aerial up higher by putting in on a pole outside the house and not in the loft.

I think its an analogue one, it has been moved recently and the signal improved slightly. I have never seen the aerial so i can't say whether its decent or not and the cable looks old but no sign of any obvious defects.
Would i be better off with a freeview indoor aerial?
