Robbing aerial guys (well almost!!)

[NozSpark]

I was called back to a customers house where I did some work a few months ago.... 2 of the aerial sockets that I'd fitted had no signal..

She'd had an aerial guy around and he said that she'd need them rewiring..all within 5 mins of being there!!

When I got there I tested cable continuity and for shorting between braid and core... all ok,,, so I test (with a tv) and no signal! then on a different amp output and all's OK...

So all she really needed was a new amp!,,, but there's not much money in that is there Mr Aerial installer

Did you check there's still lead on the roof?

FFS,, he was only in there 5 mins before he found the fault and he did it all by eye!

Can you recommend a good signal finder/analyser?

Thanks

My other half's sister is having a new areal fitted next week

I offered to do the job for cheaper on a weekend as only going to supply 3 rooms with the new one. So not a huge job.

Depends what you're doing with it and what your budget is, cheap ones are
