TV problems

I have to say that a 100Mhz cable sounds like bollix, the 100Mhz is the refresh rate of the TV, not the input.,

Bought samsung tv 100hz. Shop told me I needed 100hz hdmi cable for sky hd box as the sky hdmi cable is only 50hz, shop was asking £39.99 for cable. Can anyone confirm if this is true or just sales bulls**t

Which shop? Standard HDMI should be 100% for 1080 HD.

It seems odd to me that you are not getting some sign of the NI signals, even if they broke up when watching them. There is no such thing as a digital aerial, the channels used were pretty much the same before and after the changeover, so what worked before should have worked after.

If your TV allows some sort of manual scan then scan channels 40,43,46, 48 for Carnmoney

The best guide to aerials  is what the neighbours are using, but this would be Group B yellow tip aerial.

You'll only ever get the sound and no picture from RTE as you've only get the bog standard freeview, not a Freeview HD tuner needed for RTE and some of the other HD channels on the horizon.

All sorted, bought the new aerial and took down the old one which was in need of repair anyways , the water proof box that connects the aerial lead to the antenna was apparently causing the problems so just connected the lead straight to the antenna, I've now got all the channels and I've made up leads to the kids room, they have all the free view channels now. Saved myself a few pound no doubt I'd have been charge over a hundred quid
