We are more than willing to give advice to those actually purchasing from us. Could those only seeking information please just find the answer somewhere on this site, or ring an aerial installer local to them, or call the reception advice phone numbers.

I no longer update this page (see Search This Site) but it is still useful for some searches which don`t really work that well with a search engine.
