Welcome

Ooo, I'll have to check but, if my experience of house building is anything to go by, if it costs extra they won't bother, even if it's a couple of inches of wire.

Never thought of going underneath. That is a good option if I can't follow the route that was done when the original aerial was installed but obviously Willerby have the advantage of installing the cables before all the walls went up. I'll have to see what options I have.

On my last caravan, the cables ran uninterrupted from the dish to the Freesat box. Remember to leave some excess cable to allow for repositioning etc. You can if you want run the cables from the dish to a wall mounted socket in the van so you can then plug in another suitable length of cable to connect to the Freesat box or the TV if it has a built-in Freesat tuner.

I understand 4G/5G phone signals can cause issues, especially if there is a mast near to you. You can get filters for this or change to an aerial that will filter it or get a masthead amplifier with a built in filter.

Thanks Tony,

We are heading down in a couple of weeks and we'll look at all the options. I need to look at my 3G/4G connection as well.

We just have the bog standard aerial that came with the van. Only have one TV but there are times it drives us nuts. Now we are not going to rent any more we are happier to do some more homely modifications. I actually have a spare aerial I was supposed to fit at home, another job I never got around to, in the loft. I may have a look at that and see if that would suit. 

We can get ok TV reception but from time to time it just breaks up and the HD channels are a no go
