I can't give you the specifics as it's only something I was watching in the background but as I understand it, there is no such thing as a digital aerial.

If your analogue reception is good already across all channels and in different weather conditions, then I believe there is no need to replace it at all....

It was a Watchdog program a few weeks back so may still be on iPlayer...

Hope this helps...

when they mention 'digital' aerials, I beleive they mean that they have a better reception to get a cleaner signal for the digital boxes, as some peoples aerials are over 20 years old, and just won't cut the mustard.

That's like mine. It was in the house when we moved in back in 91

Best prices I found were Screwfix, and they do loft mount kits, some came in under £20
