I have bought a freeview TV with HD & 3D do I need a digibox to make it digital before the switchover?.
Do I need a digibox for my old TV to receive freeview?

TLS - A freeview TV doesn't need a digital box because it is built-in, except if you want HD the in-built is not HD. Only analogue devices, like your old tv, need a digital box to enable them to receive freeview channels.

steven preston: Let me get this right - your Talktalk/Humax recorder is downstairs, but you want to connect a TV in the bedroom to the aerial.

Ok, assuming you've got an outside aerial, you could split the signal (easiest if your cable runs inside the house, and through the loft). Your nearest main transmitter is Rowridge, which is 52km away, but you might be fine without a booster. Someone is probably able to tell you how to do this better than I can, but its not difficult. Just buy a decent metal splitter (about a fiver).

You could even just put up a portable, but I wouldn't bet on it.
