Hope you all like the picture?  Never a dull moment installing aerials & satellites, you have a different view every time, and we can never guess what we will see next.  But these guys just made a perfect picture!  If you look closely at the large house beneath you will have a good idea just how high these guys actually are.  I’m guessing at that height if things go wrong game over!  We were called by our customer for a new aerial installation Harlow Essex and we were incredibly pleased to see the house with scaffolding all the way to the gable end where we wanted to attach our new aerial.  The sun was breaking through, getting warmer and we had scaffolding swish!

We took up a Fracarro w/b log-periodic and using our spectrum analyser we rotated the aerials 360 degrees looking at all the available signals in Harlow.  The London signal was hideous, spiked and all over the place, Anglia was a no go but good old Sandy Heath Beds & Cambridge was a winner winner chicken dinner!  Now having a workable signal we neatly taped down the aerial coax cable to the 8ft 1” ½ alloy mast and fitted a small pair of T&K wall brackets, 6 brick courses down from the top of our customer’s gable end, ensuring the fixings will last for years and years to come, and withstanding the wild and windy winters we are now experiencing.

Our customer required 2 aerial points so we fitted a 2way variable gain low noise masthead pre-amp and once fed by the aerial we were able to control the gain of the masthead pre-amp, so our customers 2 new aerial points received the perfect digital signal.  With the 2way masthead pre-amp now fitted, balanced and sealed we ran the 2 coax leads in wf100 which is a fantastic low loss cable.  Copper on copper on copper, you only get what you pay for in this day and age and if you need every dB the wf100 is a perfect choice. We ran our 2 aerial points and fitted the remote 12v 100m/a power supply unit and connected our cables to our customer’s TV’s, we re-tuned the TV’s and our customers were delighted with their pictures and having more channels then they had before they were delighted.  We packed away and cleared up, our next job was another new aerial Harlow Essex so we did not have far to travel to our next call.
