Hi

This sums it up really...

My friend has a TV in a room with no aerial socket to a roof aerial... She uses the small loop antenna from another old TV and has a poor quality of picture.

Any advice on boosters, just making up a longer lead etc... would be welcomed!

Just do what i do. I use leads that go from a splitter and 3 boosters that go all the way up the stairs and across the landing into each bedroom. It works great even with digital. It goes from main signal downstairs. First use a splitter from main socket downstairs then fixing the leads along skirting boards up the stairs and into each room. I also use a booster half way on the landing and a booster in the bedroom too and it works great. Try though using more expensive cable not too cheap. Good luck.
