Have you retuned your TV, and does it receive DVB (DigitalVideoBroadcast) ?

Are you using a satellite system? If so it might be worth looking to lower the elevation of the dish that far north.

I use a tv with dvb. I search for channels and , even getting a 90% of signal, i don't catch any channel. Maybe they have another dvb system here?

Hola rcs.

The TV systems used in Denmark and Spain is the same PAL B/G so if your equipment works fine at home it should work fine in Denmark.

The only thing I can suggest is moving the aerial around to see if that makes a difference.

In the analogue days a 90% signal would have shown you something, but a digital signal is often either there and perfect, or completely absent. Nothing in-between.

Buena suerte!

PAL B/G is analogue has nothing to do with DVB.

OP,

Denmark uses DVB-T MPEG-4 for SD and HD transmissions.

Spain uses DVB-T MPEG-2 for SD and DVB-T H.264/MPEG-4 for HD transmissions.

So your TV's tuner might not be compatible.

I am trying. Moving the antenna. I also used two different antennas, one omnidirectional status and one conventional from home. But nothing.

No need you were trying to help. But things move on analogue TV is nearly completely extinct as a broadcast system.

It might be but check with your TV's manufacturer or menus. On some TV's there is a new installation option in the menu where you can choose the country your are in. If your TV has that option give it ago.

I don't know what you are trying to receive, bare in mind you will only receive local TV stations if anything at all and not your home stations . If you want your home stations then satellite is the way to go.
