No I am confused.

I thought all aerials were analogue, and that it was digital aerials
which were a figment of the marketing department's imagination.

Well, if people want to argue in ped'ant's' corner then it may be useful to
note that 'digital' and 'analogue' may *both* be irrelevant here. Instead
you should be arguing about antennas behaving as photon capture devices...
:-)

Now wonder how much angular momentum an antenna picks up when receiving
circular polarisation... 8-]

Slainte,

Martin, are you aware that there are two people called Bill in this
group? My own comment has been confined to 'no waterproofing of the
'f' connector and no cable clips?' I didn't criticise you for it, I
merely pointed it out, although of course you know it's very poor
work. I find it surprising that you put pics of bad work on your
website.



Firstly there are 4 bolts although the one does appear to be missing

I'm not sure what you're saying. If one is missing from a set of four
there are three. I've looked very closely and it looks like three
bolts and an empty hole to me.

and yes you are right I forgot to tape the f connector, but then it is
solid cable, not air spaced.

It doesn't matter.

The house is surrounded by high trees,
there was no option but to put it on the chimney,

Fair enough. I often put dishes on chimneys, if I'm happy that the
chimney will stand it. In this case I'd be far more worried about the
tall mast, which is on a very small chimney for the load it will
impose, with the brackets much too close. The rule of thumb is 1ft
between the brackets for every seven feet of height.

The dish in your picture should have been installed one or two courses
of bricks lower. This would have reduced the visual impact and
possibly helped it stand up to the wind. It would also have made it
more secure because there would have been more weight on the bricks to
which it was attached.

so you never forget
to tape a plug,

I don't think I do actually, which is quite surprising really.

you never under any circumstances bolt a dish to a
chimney,

See above.

*well I wish I was as f**king perfect as you! How about getting a life instead of nit picking at others,

I don't nit pick on my website, I merely point out gross unforgivable
errors. Mentioning that you have left the f connector unprotected and
that you've left the cable insecure is not nit picking. These are
serious faults.

I guarantee all my
work, I honour every single guarantee, promptly,

Having a good honest attitude does not make you a competent installer.
Your heart is in the right place but I honestly think you could
improve your installation skills.

recalls are rare but
I bet even you mr perfect get one or two?

Of course, how could it be otherwise? We all suffer faulty amplifiers
etc, and make mistakes, and have confused people as customers.

*Up yours!
Thank you. As you might know I'm always ready for a cheap thrill.



Unfortunately some people spend a lot of time slagging others off
in this group. *Bill often goes on about going out to correct aerial
installations and how a lot of people are cowboys. *What he has NEVER
done is name any company he claims have corrected work for. *Not
once has he said anything about work installed by other companies
because they would sue him. *I don't believe how perfect Bill is either,
he sounds like he wants everyone to think he is. *We are all still
waiting for the many names of companies that have installed unsuitable
equipment that Bill has charged to "correct". *I think it will be funny to
see someone we all know about on ROGUE TRADERS! *Let's see
how perfect those claiming to be really are.
One day Bill, you will upset the wrong people.

You remind me of someone. Who could it be?

You are such an as**ole, I bet your neighbours love you! shall I send

car tax in your street!

Well done. It takes a real pro to distinguish analogue and digital
yagis from ground level.

taking the ****?

He's just pointing out the obvious, ie there is no such thing as an
analogue aerial.

we all know this! the comment is for the general public who don't know
technical terms, to jo public it's either analogue or digital! Doh!

Don't you have a responsibility to your customers to educate them
where possible, rather than consolidate their misapprehensions?
