    Can you explain a little more?
    Do you mean a set of rabbit ears?
    Is Freeview available now?
    Thanks!

    In Swords you're going to need an absolutely massive aerial, if its possible at all. Because Freeview is the UK DTT system and is, resultingly, not broadcast here.

    Will I need an aerial when they trial DTT?

    From mid-august, and of course you'll need an aerial of -some- description, or else you get no signals...

    And something more substantial than rabbit ears.
