Greetings everyone! I'm contemplating removing my TV Arial and put a blanking plate on, then if possible put a poynting antenna in place of it.
Where can I get a plate for it, please?

Cant you just fit the Poynting antenna over the hole?

Just a thought - how about taking the flat aerial bit off the top of the pole? I don't know what sort of aerial you're thinking of fitting but if it's a bit like a chunky whip, one of the things I noticed about mine (on an Accordo) is, as well as the up/down, you can rotate the flat aerial so it's vertical - if you could do the same with a whip you could rotate the whip so it's flat with the roof, so it's less likely to be knocked off by a branch? But as I said it depends on your plan! Just re-read that and it's not the clearest thing I've ever written - hope you see what I mean!

I removed a similar TV aerial from mine and replaced it with a Poynting MIMO. It was an easy job. Took a couple of hours to strip the adhesive and sealant off and slap the new antenna on. The new antenna completely covered the old mess. I did 3d print a sleeve with an outside lip on the bottom to reduce the size of the hole. But other solutions are available.

My son has a 3D printer ( maybe 3) that would give him a job, thanks @Guigsey.
