I have seen "digital" tv areals on sale and before I go round telling people they are no different to "analogue" areals could someone confirm please ?

Not to be too picky, but in the U.S. the digital TV signal uses 8-VSB vestigial sideband modulation, which is a modified form of single-sideband AM modulation.HarveyH42 said:It's still UHF, digital or analog (encoding), the signal is still a radio frequency, with a carrier and FM modulated. I doubt there is any significant difference.
Hero999 said:You also might need to point it in a slightly differrent direction as the transmitter which provides digital TV might be in a different location.
Hero999 said:Here in the UK TV has all been UHF since the mid 1980s - the last VHF transmissions were turned off back in about 86 but Nigel will know more about this than me.
