baddad Report post Posted January 26, 2007 I saw an ad in the RT the other day for 'freestat' from sky, which i didn't previously know about... It's an alternative option to a digi-box, and is available in most areas where digis don't go yet... For a one off payment of �150.00 you get a minidish/decoder etc and installation, and you get all of the freeview channels + a few extras... We have OK reception through the aerial, but in this weather it tends to break up a bit, so I'm toying with this idea myself - it's probably cheaper than getting a new 'ultra strong' aerial put up, and chances are you'll get 'add on' options later on... Ultrmum's links have full details scattered about! L&P BD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
