do you know if DTT (what's that by the way?)
We'll be buying new TV so any additional advice for this greenhorn would be appreciated.
Thanks for the replies, guys.
Zag you describe our ideal situation - do you know if DTT (what's that by the way?) has adequate reception nationwide? We'll be buying new TV so any additional advice for this greenhorn would be appreciated.

As far as I know it's nationwide, but the people here - http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=56 - should be able to confirm if you give them your location.
In fact check here - http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055420793&page=37 - for detail of TVs which tick all the boxes.

Just reading this thread this evening and have a few months old TV so plugged in cats ears type aerial and scan or digital channels. I picked up RTE1, RTE2, TV3 and TG4 also 4 radio station. I must say very impressed. The picture is crystal clear.
So with this and a freeview box there is no need to pay for TV unless you want the movies or Sports
A TV sold in the UK market (say, like in Belfast . . .) as being ready for DTT won't work with Irish transmissions.
Not true, a lot of TVs sold in the UK market have both MPEG2 & MPEG4 decoders. As mentioned above, you need MPEG4 for Irish DTT.

Zag would you have any more details - I found the boards site confusing, doesn't seem to be for newbies to dtt, in particular
- is there set top boxes to get the irish channels on dtt? Do you need an outdoor aerial with these or just plug in the set top box thanks.
