Your Sky box is designed to work with signals transmitted within the frequency range used by satellites. (These frequencies are in a completely different range to those used for terrestrial TV). So, if you were hoping to connect the box to an ordinary TV aerial, in order to recieve Freeview services, the answer to your question has to be 'No'.

If, however, you've not only got the box, but you've got a satellite dish as well, then it's all very simple. Assuming that your house has a Sky satellite dish connected to your Pace Sky Box, you can use it to receive the free satellite service. The box won't work without a card but you can buy one for a one-off payment of �20. You'll then be able to receive a range of free channels which is somewhat wider than that available through terrestrial Frreview.
