Can anyone advise on options to receive freeview.
We are going camping in Dawlish area and understand its in a low signal reception area.
We have a small telly with built in freeview and need a suitable aerial.
Seems little choice for indoor types for low signal areas.. any ideas?

we went to Dawlish (Cofton) and had little or no signal, the shop sold loads of kit, I had an aerial but we had to buy an extra pole make it high enough and it picked up an ok signal. our aerial came as a kit with pole and a frame bracket off ebay for about 20 odd quid

yes its an outside one, you wont stand a chance of recieving anything with an indoor one, once the whole country turns off the analogue signal an outdoor aerial will be required to get good recepition, unless you go down the satelite route.
