Hi Brian - Today I seem to be getting an hourly email even though nothing of interest to me has happened.
Incidentally I don't mind getting ads on the site but why is it always/often an ugly trout in a short skirt sitting on the edge of a bed looking hopeful? "Mature Dating UK" is not a site I am ever likely to patronise.
Can you change it to "Lingerie Babes" or similar please?

FREEVIEW needs a Yagi aerial as above or similar unless you have a very strong signal - need your postcode to check that.
If you still have your sky DISH you can get FREESAT with a suitable box or inbuilt tuner.
Or a sky box if you still have one.

Hi Brian - did you see the query about hourly emials of no new info?
Can you stop it or should I turn off my notifications?

Steve H - change your preferences to "Daily" as I have, pending Brian sorting it out.
F Ox - I presume they were previously working? And that you have twiddled connections. Try swapping the sky boxes to see if the problem is the aerial or the box.
Jon - I think your tv will tell you somewhere in setup menu. Are you not in UK?

If you were using FREEVIEW - ie digital TV before s/over you should still be able to, with a vertical aerial pointed at Torosay. But check with others locally as you are a little remote for some of the mapping!
See here re using skybox for free.
Can I stop paying Sky and use my satellite receiver to get Freeview ? | ukfree.tv - 10 years of independent, free digital TV advice

Hi Brian - pleased to note that I am now getting car ads! Which do seem to use some sort of spyware as they are sites I have visited. If I ever visited "Mature Dating UK" it was a mistake!

No boxes NEED to be connected to the phone. Sky likes it so they can do interactive things.
Are you connected to a dish?

If theirs is inbetween yours and the satellite; certainly. eg if it is above or if they point sideways to a wall they are mounted on.
If just next to each other, 7ft should be plenty separation. We have three very close - within inches of each other.
Could thay have knocked yours out of alignment when putting up theirs?

Clive Rogers you sseem to think that this site has somethng to do with the people who transmit TV.
You are wrong.
And even if we WERE the people who run your TV transmitters how could we possibly respond as you give no info on what tranmitter you use or where you are.
Anyway, Breakfast TV is the spawn of the devil and you are well rid of it.
Suggest you plug your postcode in top right of this page.
Incidentally no-one here cares a damn if you move to freesat - in many ways a better serice IMHO.

Virgin CABLE needs a virgin box - and a sub afaik. Don't think there is "Freecable"
So you need the roof aerial for Freeview - or a sat ddish for Freesat.
