if your status is a 530/5 or 530/10 then you should have a pole on the inside of one of your cupboards or wardrobes they have a tightning nut if you undo that then the pole can twist around and if you push it up it extends to make it taller. And there's a CRANK to make the aerial chnage from vertical to horrizontal.

If you have the "flying saucer" then you are probably on a hiding to nothing until the digital signal is boosted, which it will be eventually.

Until then, as already suggested, an external aerial on a pole will serve you well!
