Think it's ok to ask this kind of question in this forum...! Just wondering if someone could recommend a firm local to Reading that could fix my TV aerial. Ideally without raping me. Dozens of companies on yell.com, but wondered if anyone had positive experiences of any.

Think it's a pretty quick job - probably no more than 30 mins work. Just need someone with a long ladder and who's less f*ckwitted than i am!

Cheers

Stu.

How dare you post this thread in TV&S!!! Move it immediately to the "Home Cinema & Hi-Fi" forum.

I do wish the mods would keep up with some of these nonsense threads! mad

I'm not sure which forum to move this to .... Home Cinema? I guess P&P would be better.

Regional question as he wants a local reccomendation? leave it here for 48hrs then move to P&P or Home Cinema?

Food and drink might be more suitable.

Anyway - to assist with an answer - the CAI site with approved installers can be found here: http://www.cai.org.uk/asp/domestic_search1.asp

Ironically, the chairman (or one of their bigwigs) of the CAI is also local - so I guess you'd not get a better service than from him smile

I've not made my ban quota for the day yet (although another of us came VERY close to it) - so are you volunteering? smile
