| 1353453 | 2013-09-13 10:56:00 | Is there a freeview receiver that you can record tv on and watch later? or is that only possible with sky? Thx Yes, my cheapie Loranz UHF terrestrial can record programs, as can another UHF cheapie I bought from Harvey Norman, in fact only our two Freeview-enabled TVs can't record. If the decoder has a USB socket on the front or back, they can usually record, but you should always check the specs before buying. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 1353456 | 2013-10-27 01:41:00 | Sorry for all the q's. but I assume that the above Harvey Norman receiver can record? Do you just put in any usb or do you need to buy some recording usb?? Thanks :) | pct (16854) | ||
| 1353457 | 2013-10-27 04:35:00 | Any USB should work. The bigger the better. Good price for that unit too. |

| 1353458 | 2013-10-27 05:38:00 | Cheers! would this model have an LNB loop terminal?? :) | pct (16854) | ||
| 1353459 | 2013-10-27 05:52:00 | That box is designed to be used with UHF not sat. | Alex B (15479) | ||
| 1353460 | 2013-10-27 05:54:00 | Oh damn, so that would not work with satellite ? and no LNB loop ? | pct (16854) | ||
| 1353461 | 2013-10-27 06:25:00 | Nope. Not even a little bit. It would be cheaper, and just as ineffective, to use a length of garden hose and a funnel. :( | R2x1 (4628) | ||
