Sorry - I know this question will have beeen asked before. Off to the Isle of Wight on saturday and trying to keep teenage daughter sweet by taking a tv for the olympics. Can anybody recommend a cheap ariel that will do a half decent job? Freeview would be nice but not essential.

Haven't been lucky enough to find one that gets a good reception. Bought a hybrid stick recently to try and get the tv on my computer. Doesn't seem to be enough digital receivers round the areas we've been to lately.  I'd be interested to see some of your replies.

Regarding the actual receiver, Tesco do a Clarity freeview box for £14.97 which work very well, price considered.

It's very sensitive which means (In theory) you might get away with a smaller aerial..

(They were on special offer for £12.97 the other week, too!)

we brought this Ariel last year and have used it many times in many different locations we are very pleased with the reception we use the new digital/free view tv and the signal/picture we receive is as good as dvd quality.
