Secondly professional installers carry signal test meters essential for establishing the amount of signal present at your location. This enables them to ascertain the type of aerial required for your situation.
There are additional factors to consider when installing an aerial,
Wall or chimney mounting, is there an overhang on either? This will determine the size and type of brackets.
How high does the mast need to be to 'clear all obstructions'? sizes vary between 3ft and 20ft.
What level of signal is available at your location? This will help determine the size and type of aerial required.
Does the aerial need a Masthead Amplifier? This will be dependent on the incoming signal levels.
