tv aerial

[shell&andy]

Hi i am hoping someone can help,i have just bought a 8.4 inch digital lcd tv today and have found that the aerials that come supplied dont seem to be able to get a signal,i have tried the home aerial and everything is fine.
Can anyone give me some ideas of what kind of aerial i will need to get.
ps i bought it from maplins and they do have a few arials in stock but the guys there were not sure which one would be best.Has anyone got a tv set up and can reccomend one.

cheers,andy

I use a Maplin mag mount @ £9.99 with no worries unless in a very poor digital area, my Maplin TV also has analogue and secam as well as PAL & DTV.....you might be in a low signal area and if you haven't a powerful arial your signal can be poor......until 2011 that is when we are DTV everywhere...
if your set is one of these...............http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=99271 then the above applies

Mike yeah thought the pics might be useful, based on yours and others recommendations I'm going to have a go with one. Did you attach yours permanently to the bongo?
