Not necessarily. If your existing antenna is in good condition and connected to your wall outlets with quality coaxial cables, you should be able to get adequate reception in good signal areas. However, if you are missing some channels, get a pixelated picture or signal drop outs a new Digital Antenna may be required. Just go to the Freeview site to see the channels available for Australian audience.
Digital transmission allows more data to be carried from the signal source to the end user. Consequently, you get significantly improved picture and sound quality. It also allows a greater number of channels and content to be broadcast within the same frequency range. Other great features that come with digital TV include electronic program guides, parental lockout systems, closed captioning or subtitling to offer hearing impaired people a text version of dialogue. Another benefit of Digital television is its greater resistance to noise created by electrical appliances, which results in less interference and better TV reception.
If you just moved into a new property and can’t get any reception, the first thing you should do is run an auto-tune setting on your TV set. Your TV usually stores channels in its memory based on the frequencies your previous antenna was tuned to. For example, if you lived in an area closer to a Sydney transmission tower your antenna would have been using VHF frequencies and your TV stored those parameters in its memory. If you then moved to an area closer to the Kurrajong repeater, your antenna will most likely work on UHF frequencies, so you will have to update your TV tuner’s memory by running an auto-tune. To do that, select the “Settings” option in your TV Menu and look for “auto-tuning” or “auto-scan”. Click “Ok” or “Run” and your TV will automatically search for relevant channels and re-write previously memorised parameters.
Yes, if you are located in a good reception area, close to a transmission tower. However, we recommend external installation due to a higher possibility of signal obstruction and interference when antenna is installed inside a roof cavity. Modern Digital antennas are quite compact and we always aim to position them towards the back of a roof, so they are less visible from a façade. We understand your desire to keep antennas away from the street view, but we also need to make sure you are getting the best signal possible. Our technicians will work with you to find the right balance between the looks and practicality of your antenna set up.
There are certain areas in Sydney where having a tall mast is inevitable to get a good line of sight to a transmission tower. However, in a lot of cases there is an alternative repeater that can be used for Free-to-Air reception. Quite often people don’t know what options are available and have to put up with an “overkill” structure on their roofs. For example, in most parts of Kellyville, Castle Hill and surrounding suburbs we can access signal from the new Kurrajong repeater. This allows us to get rid of the tall masts with Sydney and Wollongong directed antennas in favour of a much shorter mount with a single High Gain Digital Aerial tuned to Kurrajong.
Yes and No… If your existing TV antenna is receiving a good quality signal, but the strength is not there, the amplifier will certainly help. This usually happens when you are located further away from a transmission tower. However, an amplifier will not improve quality of the signal, it may actually do the opposite – amplify the noise that is being picked up by your antenna.
If you can get all digital channels and don’t get any pixelation or signal drop outs, your antenna is working fine. Quite often people expect to see the same quality picture as in a shop display and it simply can’t be achieved through FTA Digital broadcast, at least not yet. Digital TV broadcast in Australia is currently limited to Standard Definition (720P) and High Definition (1920P). There are only a few sources of 4K resolution videos, mostly supplied on 4K Blu-Ray Discs and selected shows via Internet TV channels.
If you can’t get reception from the nearest terrestrial tower, you may be eligible to apply for Viewer Access Satellite Television (VAST). It provides digital television and radio services to viewers in remote areas of Australia. You will be able to access ABC, SBS and the Australian commercial television networks via the VAST service. The ABC and SBS services are available to all viewers with a VAST decoder, but you will need to meet certain criteria to access commercial channels. Visit My Sat TV for more information and eligibility conditions.
Pixelation on your TV can be caused by various factors. While your new antenna can pick up a decent signal it’s also important to check what signal levels are like on the end points. Quite often in older houses you may have poor quality cables, splitters or connections on the wall plates. All of these components will have an impact on the end result and need to be checked. However, if the signal on end points is strong the pixelation is most likely caused by external interference or noise. It may come from a nearby Mobile transmission tower or even your electrical appliances. Finding the source of the noise is part of the solution. Once it’s determined you can use different ways of minimising the interference, such as using a powerful amplifier with built-in interference rejection filters, or changing the cables, or a better quality shielded type.

Our antennas come with a supplier warranty that includes full replacement coverage for the antenna itself, ensuring that any fault within the warranty period results in a free part replacement. Additionally, our warranty uniquely covers the labor cost for antenna replacement, a value-added service that protects clients from unexpected expenses. Many companies offering extended warranties, such as 25 years, often exclude labor, meaning clients could face significant installation costs if a replacement is needed—costs that might exceed the price of the antenna itself over time.
We prioritize transparency, offering clear and upfront pricing alongside a realistic warranty that truly meets client needs, avoiding hidden fees. While we stand by our promise to address all warranty-covered issues, it’s important to note that physical damage (e.g., from birds, weather, or fallen trees) or external factors (like obstructions or transmission changes) are not covered by any installer’s warranty. Longer warranties can sometimes be a marketing tactic, so clients are encouraged to understand what is genuinely covered to make informed decisions.
