We often camp in a poor reception area in S.E. QLD. The best reception if from the Brisbane VHF channels. I have a 34db amplifier and receive channel 2 best, but also receive the other channels, but they are not reliable. I could buy a better antenna, but would prefer to purchase a Set Top Box that may hopefully solve my problem as well as being able to use it at home for our second TV.

My inquiry is:

1. Do the set top boxes vary in receiving/boosting signal power.

2. Can anyone advise what brands / models have the best receiver.

I have looked at several set top boxes and while they vary a little in their functions, there is nothing I can find that stiulates the receiving/boosting power of the machine. Questions to salespersons are also unhelpful.

I am sure I have read something about this previously on one of the forums but my searches of the archives failed to locate it.
