There are plenty of posts about TV reception so I got to wondering what is the most popular method of receiving TV. If you have more than one method, vote for the one you most use.

Once you get the knack, these are easy to use and comparatively inexpensive to buy.
I am sometimes bemused at the value some people put into seeing Coronation Street. Weighing the cost of receiving a signal, against the time spent watching, balanced against the beauty spot the van is parked in.
Each to his or her own of course but in conversation for many people, the News and Weather seem to be the most watched items (and walking the dog the most popular exercise).
Before Easter we had a Glomex dome fitted by Shane of Snellyvision. And aren't we pleased we did?!
After breaking down in France, we only had access to French TV in the hotel rooms. Watching the Tour de France in French was hard work!! It really was a relief when Our Coral was moved some 80 miles to Camping La Perle... we could resume watching the Tour de France, only this time it was in English!! Switch on the Dome; switch on the decoder; switch on the telly... That easy!!

IMHO Freeview will make satellite TV a very expensive add-on, for UK use.
99.9% of the time I use the Status directional and get more than enough channels.
When 'sur la continent' I've never felt the urge to watch moving pictures.
No matter how you receive TV its still mostly a load of cobblers.

Yes I have automatic dishes and they work very well, I prefer the caterien cap910 which in my view is much better that the ten haff (oyster) and then there's the mormal roof aerial, more of a pain now there's only digital...... I also agree most of the tv programs are not much use but its entertainment for us all and every one have different views.
We originally used the factory fitted status aerial and received all the terrestrial tv programmes.Decided to upgrade to a maxview crankup and get all the satellite programmes through the decoder taken from home,which was great.
Then when trying unsuccessfully to watch man utd playing an important champions league game on a windy night decided to go for a KVH tracvision dome.
The dome can be used in any conditions,is impervious to the wind and we love it.
