Hi
This site seems the most helpful that I have come across so hopefully you may be able to help me too!
I currently have freesat running through my sky dish and old sky box with viewing card still in (no subscription to sky anymore). This is great and works fine, however, upstairs I have terrestrial running from one of the little inside ariels that you put on top of the telly (or end up holding while standing on one leg with your finger in your ear to watch some programs).
I realise that this will no longer work after the digital switchover and am wondering how to solve this. it needs to be the cheapest way really but I don't know what options I have. I do have a spare old sky box with the viewing card still in but don't have a second link from the dish. . Is this even an option or will I need a roof tip arial and freeview box?
My postcode is MK16 0AY
Many thanks
