Freeview

[starone]

Is it necessary to have some kind of aerial in order to watch Freeview? I will be without TV for a couple of weeks until Virgin comes to fix up stuff and I wondered if I could watch Freeview while I was waiting. Someone told me you have to have an aerial.

A decent Freeview TV picture needs a decent aerial – but you can't always use one on a rooftop. An indoor aerial can be a cheap and effective alternative – if you know which one to buy and how to use it properly.

From http://www.which.co.u...views/indoor-aerials/

Search amazon/eBay for a cheap one, you should be able to buy a decent areial for under £20, just to tide you over until Virgin comes online.

Thanks boxtops for the answer and the link. Plenty of choice there and not too expensive. It will only be for a couple of weeks (I hope) so I don't want to spend too much. But then, I might be able to resell it on eBay!!

Oh, I see, so I should have thanked you, not boxy. Oops I have put her for best answer too. Sorry about that.
