Hello all,
Can someone help me with a reception issue I have come across with DTT (TDT) in Madeira Island.
We visit older family 4 times a year over there and on our last visit purchased a DTT box "Shop+2100HD" as the local anologue signal could barely recieve 1 channel (RTP Madeira). To our surprise the reception of all the FTA channels (RTP1, RTP2, RTP Madeira, SIC and TVI) was perfect.
Out of curiosity, I would rescan on different days depending on the weather to see if there were any digital radio stations available. One day after a scan I picked up another 10 or so channels from Spanish TV, of note, Telecinco, Boing, TV24, TV Canarias 1+2, TVE1+2 (LA1=LA2) and Antena3.
However our joy was short lived as sometimes the channel would lock-on for a few hours and then be NO Signal for hours/days.
The arial is less than 5 years old and of a common type seen on other houses.
Therefore my question is can I improve the reception of these spanish channels?
PS Usefull link in English for TDT Portugal ANACOM
Our house is about 750m above sea level with a south east view to the ocean.
