Replacement TV Aerial Essex
Replacement TV Aerial Essex
Saturday and our last call of the day is for a replacement TV aerials Essex, when we arrived we were greeted by our customer who was pleased to see us. They had a 19 year old Yargi TV aerial on their stack and had just bought a new TV and wanted quite rightly a perfect picture, they had looked at my website http://andysaerial.wpengine.com and wanted us to replace their TV aerial. We took our ladders off of the van and went on the roof to check the signal for both quality and strength, our customer wanted 2 TV points and although the signal was ok they was going to need a 2way masthead pre-amp fitting to the TV aerial to lift the signal to a perfect level.

Our customer wanted heavy duty fixings so we lashed their chimney stack with a 13” 5 brick course heavy duty chimney cradle and fitted the log-periodic w/b TV aerial to a 1” ½ alloy mast ensuring its strength for years and years to come. When we doped the aerial and heavy duty mast into the chimney cradle we metered the aerial, electronically aligning it using our spectrum analyser, we had already looked at the signal strengths from both London Crystal Palace and Anglia Sudbury. We went with Anglia as 5 of the 6 digital mux’s were coming in at 40DB and the 6th digital mux was 37DB. We took up with us a 2way variable gain masthead pre-amp 4G protected and using the spectrum analyser we were able to adjust the signal to be good and strong but not carrying much noise.

As we always do we cable tied the masthead to the heavy duty mast and then went around it with thick black electric tape ensuring it would never come away from the aerial mast, fall down and let water in! We ran our 2 new cables down the back of the roof and discreetly into the garage where we then ran them to the 2 points which were behind. You couldn’t see a cable so we were delighted as we try extremely hard to keep our installations discreet. We set-up and re-tuned our customer’s TV’s and delighted with the pictures we packed away and cleared up, breaking up our customer’s old aerial and mast. We wrote our bill and headed home.
