Also, is it possible to network access the HD box from my computer, seeing how they are both connected to the router. Could I watch a video file from my PC through the HD box and into my TV? Both of my video card connections are connected to monitors.

Today all the BBC channels stop working.
I'm on the Redruth/ Carradon Hill transmitters.
(My HD box seems to tune into both).
I did a retune and they reappeared.
Did the BBC do a frequency change, and if so, why was it not advertised?
I can only assume there are a lot of people in the area who are not tech savvy wondering why their TV doesn't work.

Brian, please help. I'm a little confused.
Will I be able to receive a decent signal strength at B97 5YL
From what I can see on your site, it looks like a weak signal, but it's a fairly large conurbation.
cheers, and thanks for any help.

Hi. I am moving house soon. There is an existing sat dish and Sky digibox, TU-DS830 Panasonic, non-HD. The house is 9 years old and I suspect the sat installation is of similar age. Can I just plug in a new Freesat HD box, say HB-1000S, using HDMI into my 1080P Sony TV?
Further, what is the easiest way to get an independent channel switching signal (independent to the first TV set) to a second Sony HD ready TV in the bedroom? I think I am reading I can connect a TV type lead from the HD box to the second TV. Is there some way to make the connection wireless and save having to run a lead around the house?
Many thanks for any help.
Nick

Thanks Ian. If I plug the sky box AND the Freesat box to the TV, and select which device from the TV remote, how can I get the dish signal into both boxes. This would save having to swap the dish connector. Is it possible to split the dish signal?

BTW, I thought the best way of getting a signal to the second, bedroom TV was to buy a second sat dish and Freesat box, so the TV has it's own separate feed. Does this sound reasonable, or a bit 'over the top'?

Thanks for the usual prompt and helpful reply.
I set to channels 050 or 054 and switch the TV to receive from the HD box, so I see the HD chennel.
I press the red button on the HD box hand set and nothing happens.
It seems odd that the box has a connection to my router but I cannot seem to do anything.
