Lots to see (and criticize) on this page http://www.abaerials.co.uk (click
on gallery) starting with the mains cable running diagonally in the plaster
from TV to socket outlet. They've also nicked one of Bill's pictures. It's
about the only picture that doesn't feature a Triax Unix 52. One size
obviously does fit all!

This paragraph from the front page tells you all you need to know
about the company:


There is no need to replace your current television as there are
several options already available to receive the Freeview Digital TV
service. One of the more common methods is the installation of a new
Digital TV Aerial at your property, and the addition of a digital
receiver box to receive the signal.

I don't see that company having a go at others and claiming to
correct lots of work and installations - but not being able to
name one single case or company involved. Not every company
is honest unfortunately and I get the impression some are run
by cowboys - especially when they keep claiming to correct work
undertaken by other companies.
I know who Trading Standards should be investigating. Remember
homes from hell? Guess which companies have been
recently filmed for a future TV programme.

Ian, are you sure it is a case of "not" being able to, or, being
sensible and not doing so in a public place? I could name a number of
companies work, both in my line of business and others that I have come
across that would be worthy of mention, but it is not worth the ensuing
slanging match. They will get their comeuppance by their own hand at
some point. Probably by loosing repeat business.

I suspect they won't fall foul of Part P as they appear to have just buried
the flex in the wall with a 13amp plug top at the end!
As "experts" though, they would certainly be liable should anyone drill into
that cable as it certainly doesn't adhere to any safe practice of burying
cables that I'm aware of.

My wife calls me an anorak regularly - I now accept it as a compliment. It's
certainly a talking point.

I have every sympathy with your uncle. I can recall aerials in random towns

Oh, yes. It must be on a 3D mast, held by 3D brackets, with a 3D coax
downlead (twin coax, one centre for each eye). Masthead amps and
distribution amps will need to be twinned. 3D is stereoscopic. Just the
same as with stereophonic systems everything needs to be duplicated.

I hope that helps. ;-)

Not really. The television says it's HD ready, the aerial doesn't.

I've seen a lot of headlines recently - probably stirred up by Murdoch -
about Freeview HD being "a scam" because you have to buy a decoder,
but the real scam is calling a TV "HD ready" when all it means is that
the screen is high enough resolution.

It's reminiscent of all those TVs that were advertised as "cable
ready" just because they had 100 channel numbers, which was entirely
useless.

downlead (twin coax, one centre for each eye).


There will ned to be three brackets, named, i, j and k.


No you only need i-h and k-h the third bracket is formed by a matrix.

In America the top bracket is thinner of course.

Using digital coax of course

What I want to know is, if they ever do start broadcasting 3D television
terrestrially, will I need to upgrade my specially priced digital
television aerial to a 3D television aerial? ;)


Probably...

Interesting. I wonder whether they have considered moving the
polarisation planes through 45 degrees: x rather then +.


There was a discussion on here or, utb a year or two ago about a proposed
DTT system that required receiving aerials of H and V polerasations from the same transmitter,
some sort of diversity IIRC. I suppose if the idea took off the manufactures
would make x/y TV aerials with separate downleads.

I suspect they won't fall foul of Part P as they appear to have just
buried the flex in the wall with a 13amp plug top at the end! As
"experts" though, they would certainly be liable should anyone drill
into that cable as it certainly doesn't adhere to any safe practice
of burying cables that I'm aware of.


Because the cable is fixed I think it will come under Part P. If I run
a cable to the garage fixed to the fence and into some sockets fixed to
the garage wall but put a 13A plug on the house end - that still comes
under Part P.



If it's not a new circuit, not involving a delve inside the CU and not
involving a special area (kitchen, bathroom or remote building) it won't
invoke part P.

Sockets in a remote garage certainly invoke Part P, a socket fixed the the
outside wall of your house spurred off a socket inside wouldn't.

Lots to see (and criticize) on this page
http://www.abaerials.co.uk (click on gallery) starting with the
mains cable running diagonally in the plaster from TV to socket
outlet. They've also nicked one of Bill's pictures. It's about
the only picture that doesn't feature a Triax Unix 52. One size
obviously does fit all!

See if you can spot it:

I wonder if they are Part-P registered. If so they should know about
safe zones.
