I have a Sky/Oyster satellite TV system fitted to my motorhome which works well except when there are too many trees around to block the signal. Having just bought a Samsung NC10 Notebook to access the internet via a Vodafone dongle whilst touring the UK, my thoughts turned to how I might expand my entertainment options by capturing recorded TV programmes on the Notebook. It seems as if it is possible to extract recordings from my homebased Sky+ box but it appears to be very complicated.
The next best option seems to be to buy a USB Freeview HDTV receiver
USB Freeview HDTV Receiver - Black > Portable Freeview

and to supplement this with a small Mercury EL10 aerial which might work both at home and away?

I know that I could take my homebased Sky+ box with me when on my travels but as I already have a 12v mini Sky box fitted in my motorhome, I'm reluctant to go down this route.
Does anyone out there have any thoughts/experiences that they might want to share with me on this one?
