Jernen Devos - I doubt there is any malfunction with the Sony. Your problen is related to either the booster and or tuning of the Freeview signal. Your Sony is either getting to much signal from the booster or its finding a different transmission dignal from the Toshiba. If your unsure I would get an installer in and save your self the hassle.

amanda - I suspect the booster may well be the problem Shouldn't need boosting for digital receptiom.

John Ireland - In moving you've aligned the dish on the wrong satellite. Best to get a local installer align this with a professional meter - not a big job - but you could spend some time trying to correct the alignment without. Pro meters are programmed with satellite positions and the satellite required is straight forward to align.

Chris Broadley - Depends on:-
Contractual arrangements with 5 and BSKYB and transpoder availability on Astra 2D and 5's motivation to setup on the "Freesat" platform.

Beverley Bagnall - Your integral Freeview TV cannot eork in this manner. The TV's Freeview tuner can only take digital signals from an external TV aerial source.

Gareth - SKY will disable your receivers recording capability on ceasing to subscribe to pay per view packages. You would need to purchase your own "Freesat" HDR recorder if you wanted to continue to have a recording facility.

Efe - Freeview requires an externally mounted TV aerial for satisfactory digital TV reception.

Michaela - Yes you can make use of this receiver but you would need to contact SKY to advise. Bear in mind though that HD reception will see an increase by £10 per month of your package subs. SKY will doubtless advise you of your options.

Zena - The most cost effective way is to purchase ab RF modulator kit from Amazon Maplins etc. You connect this to the scart connection on the Humax and the RF outs as per how you had with you SKY system. These kits are relatively inexpensive with several manufacturers.
