Oh, and there is no such thing as a digital aerial.

Of course there is. I've got one. Mine has the optional HD upgrade
which lets me get the HD channels as well :-)


Me too, i got mine at Dixons where a highly trained young man
told me all about my need for one, i presume you got yours there too?

'Minimise' is the word. Every coverage area has a fringe area.

sometimes these are not at the outer limit.

Based on ecclesiastical practice I wonder if an area where best
reception is from a distant transmitter, despite being surrounded by
areas where best reception is from the more local transmitter, should be
called a 'peculier'.
