| 789391 | 2009-07-06 06:22:00 | Have bought a receiver so my dragon can watch Chinese Tv. Do I need to get a special UHF aerial? The one I have is a DSE UHF/VHF combo suitable for Auckland should I try it it or just buy the right aerial Thanks for any help |

| 789392 | 2009-07-06 07:02:00 | Depending on your place of residence and therefore, signal strength, CTV8 should come in on any UHF aerial. I have a rooftop one for my Terrestrial signal and it is fine. However, I have a Pinnacle E73 USB tuner for my laptop but I have to put the squitty little aerial on the spouting outside (magnetic base) Try it and see. Put the aerial as close to an outside wall or window as you can. Ken :thumbs: |

I just use the UHF aerial I bought for when Prime first started, for Freeview HD. :) |

| 789395 | 2009-07-06 11:00:00 | I know my friend brought a satellite and some strange decoder that allows you to watch chinese channels. There's about 15 channels I think. All free. | Ninjabear (2948) | ||
| 789396 | 2009-07-06 21:27:00 | Yeah there is a Chinese family in Napier who did that. They own the dairy on the corner of Latham and Vigour Brown Streets. It has that biggish black aerial on top of it supported by some 4x2. :) |

| 789398 | 2009-07-07 21:19:00 | I looked at the book last night for hooking it up. There is nothing about hooking up non hd tv, my tv is old will it need to get the signal from the aerial connection on the tv set top box or get its signal from the AV cable? |

| 789399 | 2009-07-07 21:57:00 | It well work both ways, but connecting it by the AV cables should give you a better picture. :) |
