Ian Cooper: If you have an older HD Ready TV set, the it will have a DVI input, which is also digital. You can get a simple connector (such as
DVID to HDMI Gender Changer : Digital Monitor Cables : Maplin
), but it has no audio so you will need to connect this with another cable.
I can't really say if your proposed Panasonic device has a DVB-T2 tuner or not as you didn't provide a model number.

Amewsed: Oh yes, sorry. You won't be able to get a decent service from the Sheffield transmitter until mid 2012.
You should be able get to get all the services perfectly well from Emley Moor.

Andy B: OK, you only have the ability (as Mike says above) to get signal from "Freeview Light" transmitters at that postcode.
If you want more channels, then you have to use Freesat - see Compare Freeview Light and Freesat TV | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .

Brian King: It could just be that the Sony is less sensitive than a Freeview box. If this is the case then the obvious answer is to get another cheap Freeview box until switchover.
It is probably worth checking you've got really good quality "fly leads" as these are often the source of problems.

Neil: Unless the dish has not been used since 2003, it will be already pointing at the correct satellite cluster.
