Hi Neighbourly Locals
Having moved into the North Waikato area from Pukekohe where 95% of our Freeview installation work involved UHF antennas, we are finding a greater need to install the Satellite option (due to poor signal strength/quality of the terrestrial UHF signal) - might be a good idea if purchasing a new Freeview ready TV to consider a model with a dual tuner.
So regardless of your location, the TV can tune directly to the transmission, be it UHF or Satellite & not require a separate set top box & 2nd remote. This can be especially relevant if wanting to wall mount the screen.. 📡😀😀
