There's an assortment of XG14s, XG21s, MBM48s, MBM70s, MBM88s, various groups. They are in the loft and hard to get at so I thought I'd see if there was any interest before I went to have a look. It's 16 miles from here as well. Bill |

wrote: Years ago I had a customer who had lived in Aberdeen and had retired to Yorkshire, where he lived in a terrible reception area. He refused to believe that there could be a reception problem on the grounds that 'this is near London'. A few years ago, not long after I had discovered this group, friends bought and restored a cottage in Wales, on the border west of Shrewsbury. I called in just after they had finished, when he said the TV signal was crap, he had installed the aerial from his old house. Find out what you need for this area, I told him, one that works for Waltham won't work here. |

"Bill Wright" wrote in message ... I'm clearing my dad's house and there a quite a few TV aerials there. Ignoring the rubbish, there are some boxed high gain types. These are from the Antiference XG range and the Jaybeam MBM range. All the aerials are grouped. There are also some TC18As. Some of these aerials are from the 1980s but they are still in the original boxes. Some of the boxes are battered, but the contents are OK. These are the high gain aerials of choice if you want a grouped aerial. They knock the spots off wideband models. I was thinking that maybe £15 to £25 would be fair for each aerial, depending on type. If anyone's interested I'll go and note down the exact types and groups. It would have to be buyer collect though. These things would take a lot of parcelling up. If anyone wants to take the lot I would accept maybe £15 per aerial. Bill How much?!? www.aerialsandtv.com just up the road from you will do a brand new 18 element aerial for £26 - we bought one this year. |
