1223788 2011-08-17 03:27:00 Does the Freeview box have to be connected to a satelite to get Freeview?

Can any TV use Freeview?

1223789 2011-08-17 03:31:00 1* Depends on the Box, you may only need a UHF aerial depending where you live and type of box you have.

2* Yes

1223790 2011-08-17 03:32:00 No you can get a UHF receiver, which uses an aerial. Just as long as the TV has an output for an aerial, (and recent), you should be able to get FV Speedy Gonzales (78)
1223791 2011-08-17 03:37:00 Would the aerial be a set like one that plugs into the back of the TV? QW. (15883)
1223792 2011-08-17 03:41:00 What?? It doesnt matter what it is, as long as it fits in the back of the TV. Altho rabbit ears may or may not be good enough Speedy Gonzales (78)
1223793 2011-08-17 03:50:00 So I don't need one of these UHF aerials that is mounted onto the side of the house? QW. (15883)
1223794 2011-08-17 04:10:00 Yes you do. If you want better reception Speedy Gonzales (78)
1223795 2011-08-17 04:12:00 Whats the difference between a Terrestrial Receiver and a satellite receiver. QW. (15883)
1223796 2011-08-17 04:18:00 Satellite you need a dish, terrestrial you need an aerial Speedy Gonzales (78)
1223797 2011-08-17 04:18:00 Here's some help:

Going Digital (goingdigital.co.nz)

and

Freeview (freeviewnz.tv)

Cheers

Edit: Speedy, my installation still working like a charm - thanks.
