Hi guys

i have recently moved to a new flat and in my bedroom i have on the wall 2 sockets marked "fmradio" and "tv" on the wall. I have connected a standard ariel cable from the sockets to my tv, but it is not picking up all the channels when i have scanned or showing them in any quality, (its all fuzzy and grainy)

in the lounge area, there are similar sockets and the tv there is connected to a freeview box and scart to the tv and the channel quality is fine.

are the sockets in my room faulty? am i using the wrong cable?

my tv is a sony bravia ex 32

i bought a digital booster ariel which again i have connected directly to the tv, but it is not picking up any channels either - could this be something to do with the fact i am in a flat/area?
