Most modern aerials will work internally and do not have to be attached externally to a chimney stack or the roof.
I understand that the new model dishes are less conspicuous and that new installation techniques are being found to make those aerials less obtrusive.
I am aware that the satellite industry is concerned to lessen the impact of dish aerials.
However, wireless and television aerials are not always the unobtrusive structures which one would like and one would tolerate.
Transmitting and receiving aerials, in general similar in size to domestic television receiving aerials, have also been erected at 56 telemetric terminal sites.
People living there should generally be able to receive the services satisfactorily provided they have efficient sets and aerials.
The great majority of them are connected to simple communal aerials, often installed on blocks of flats and run entirely on a noncommercial basis.
In other words, we are going to have slightly more aerials.
