Digital TV – a high quality picture assuming that you have the right equipment!
Staying at our holiday home in the Stockholm archipelago and getting ready to watch my favorite TV program, Midsummer Murders, a bad or frozen picture is annoying. When Sweden switched to digital TV we purchased a set top box for our of CRT TV. Even during the analogue era the TV signal was poor but switching to digital transmission hasn´t fixed the problem fully. So now we need to figure out how to solve it and we started with a new rabbit style antenna, trying to find the best placement for a good signal strength - not always most preferable for other activities. In order to get a high quality connection we need to continue finding a solution in a systematic way. We have identified that a change to an employ a directional antenna outdoors, aligned with the transmitting location might solve the problem –hope it will work. I found easy to understand and useful information on digital TV and what equipment to use at:
