The problem with reception of Digital Terrestrial TV in the UK today, is that it's coverage is less, than what the old Analogue service was.

So many campsites by nature of thier location that used to get a Terrestrial Analogue signal, now get nowt!.

So my thoughts would be, if you are bothering to take a TV, you may as well take a satellite Dish and receiver along as well, it's just a pity that they don't seem to make 12" TV's etc with embedded FTA satellite tuners.

hope that helps.

Works for us on most sites.Just connect up the the set and then press auto set up.

Tbh I find that too much of a generalisation. why isn't freeview an option for camping? As Sue says, just connect up the tv and press auto set up or auto tuning to re-tune the tv for the area you're in.

I've taken my freeview tv to nine different sites in the two years since I got it and have had no problem on any of them - in fact I've even used a cheap £7-odd indoor aerial from Argos on a couple of sites and still got a perfect picture.
