    Hi looking at buying mmds aerial off skywonder, but they look different than most of the ones on houses beside me. The aerials beside me are more a square mesh whereas the ones on skywonder are straight. Are the skywonder a newer version, will they still work with chorus?

    hi mate if your on chorus in ireland you need to read through the other threads before buying an aeriel or box as a lot of the channels have now gone including sky sports,espn and the movies.

    If you are going for one of those ariels, they are only rated to work within 15 miles of transmitter, but you should be ok at further distance once you have clear line of sight to it!
