Below are all of Gordon Hargest's postings, with the most recent are at the bottom of the page.I am looking to end my Sky subscription(I have a Sky+Hd box and pay 40/month)as i am finding it an expense i can no longer afford!!! I have some questions,1. Can i use my Sky+HD box as a Freesat reciever without any modifactions,2. Do Sky still do their version of Freesat and if so how much do they charge for a card,3. If i need to,can i use a Sky+HD box to still record a Freesat programe.
Many thanks

Why were we told that in 2012 when we went "Digital"there would be no more problems from interfearance on terrestial tv,why do i have problems when the weather is either windy or cold? Normaly we have no problems but when the weather is poor,i have no end of channels with poor or no reception!!!!! Again we were fed duff info and had to pay out money to get a poorer service!!!!! NOT HAPPY to say the least.

My BBC channels on CH28 keep losing the signal,i have had this before but have had a new digital aerial and booster/splitter fitted.Up to now we have been using a Freesat box but now want a new tv with all the "gizzmos"Most of the other channels have been fine but when i go into the tuning menu on the tv and look at the signal and quality strengths,CH28 is constantly fluctuating between 1 and 8 and the others between 7 and 10. Those between 7 and 10 are fine and not breaking up but Ch 28 is unwatchable.I was told by the installer of the aerial that trees do not affect the signal but we seem to get the issue when we have strong wind and rain and the aerial points towards a copse of large trees!!! Is it a transmitter issue,tree related or just a case of having to live with it?The aerial is in the attic and we live in a bungalow at HR4 7NF Any help please?!!!!
