Area / St George

TV antennas & TV installation, St George.

From Rockdale to Oatley, St George is a mix of post-war brick homes, new townhouses and apartment blocks, and each one has its own way of losing a TV signal.

★★★★★ 4.9 from 161 ratings✓ Licensed & insured✓ 7 days, Sydney metro✓ Since 1994

St George sits south of the city with the Artarmon transmitters well over the horizon, so most homes have a workable signal but not a generous one. That makes the condition of the antenna, the cable and every splitter in between important. A slightly tired system that worked for years can tip over the edge, and the first sign is one or two channels breaking into blocks.

Ray has been working in the area for decades. Reviews from Mortdale and surrounding suburbs regularly mention the same thing: he found the real problem quickly and explained it before fixing it.

01Typical St George reception faults

Ageing antenna
Elements bent by storms or a balun that has corroded slowly lose gain.
Too many TV points
Each split costs signal. A distribution amplifier, correctly set, restores it.
Units and townhouses
Shared antenna systems need checking at the wall plate and the riser, not just the TV.
Interference
Poorly shielded cable picks up noise. Quad-shield coax and proper connectors fix it.

04Common questions

Why have some channels stopped working but not others?

Different channels travel on different frequencies, and a marginal system loses the weakest first. Measuring the signal shows which part of the system has slipped.

Can you fix the antenna in my apartment or townhouse?

Ray can test your outlet and cabling. Where the fault is in a shared system, he can report what is wrong for your strata manager.

Do I need a new antenna?

Not always. Many faults are cables, connectors or splitters. See repair or replace.

Ray was outstanding from the initial phone conversation to job completion. Ray's creative solution to mounting our TV and expertise with antenna placement resulted in better TV reception and a precise TV mounting. We would highly recommend Ray for all antenna/TV work.

Ray came the same day and did a good job. He arrived within an hour, removed the old antenna, and put in the new one with new cabling. Now, it's the best reception we've had in years.
Kenneth DBalmain, NSW
★★★★★
Ray was great. He thoroughly investigated our problem before coming up with a quote. We went from having no reception to full reception. He worked very hard under difficult (hot weather) conditions, and really helped us out. I would confidently recommend Ray to anyone needing data or TV cabling or antenna work done. Very punctual, polite and tidy worker. He left no mess. Great price too.

We are pleased with the result. Upon testing he quickly identified the problem, made suggestions, showed me exactly what was wrong, why, and how to resolve it by installing a new antenna. The cost was more than this pensioner was expecting, but the result has been well worth it. I expect to use your service again!
