you may need to upgrade your aerial

[catch me if you can]

do you mean 1 that plugs in the side

[MANAGER]

Yes he does mean that.
Try pluging in your normal household tv aerial, to be sure the set is working properly.

If your portable doesn't have built in freeview, it won't be much good next year anyway, and if it does have built in freeview, the aerial/signal needs to be stronger anyway.
