Seven years ago I paid £40 to install an aerial; I supplied the aerial,
fixing kit and co-ax cable. He had the ladders. So perhaps the quoted
price is not too bad.

I've since seen the same thing listed including aerial and full
installation for £65...

Last August, Hi-world did a piece on aerials, a copy may be available from
their subscriptions department. They suggested a Antiferance 3 element VHF
aerial and an All-rounder dipole ( the round element) it all depends on
transmitters.

In this piece, they listed: www.cai.co.uk - trade body for installing
aerials , www.maplin.co.uk and www.maxview.co.uk (links not tested).

www.cai.org.uk

They led me to Banbury Aerials:

Yell also offered these people (also CAI accredited):

http://www.pro-tecaerials.co.uk/

I don't know if CAI accreditation means anything, but I feel a bit more
confident going to them than picking someone at random from the
phonebook.

Thanks for the tips.
