    Just wondering if anyone can help me...I currently have some sort of a box that gives us the UK free channels from an aerial. I also have a cancelled sky subscription but the dish is still there...
    What I want is both saorview and the free UK channels. What's the cheapest way to do this and how??

    Where are you located (nearest town is OK)

    Have you ever got the RTE channels in the past? Do you currently have RTE1, 2, TV3 and TG4?

    Is your current aerial indoor or outdoor? Is the aerial one thing, or two different aerials pointed different ways?

    The box you currently have for Freeview, is it a freeview or a freeview HD box? If unsure write the model number.

    The topfield is a satellite receiver,connect the old sky connection to it for satellite tv (UK channels).You can connect your aerial to a saorview box for saorview reception or is your tv saorview certified? If so you don't need a saorview box.

    Yes is your TV the old CRT type or a flatscreen. If it's a flatscreen tell us the exact model number.
