Degsy: Connect the aerial to the Humax box, and use that to watch and record programmes.
If the Humax box and TV set have HDMI connections, use an HDMI lead, and remove the SCART.
You can't, and never could, record "from the SCART" using a Freeview+ box.

anne bourne: There are no transmitter problems, but until 18 April 2012 you are not predicted to get all of the Freeview services, and then it will be from Crystal Palace.
I would have a look at Freeview reception has changed? | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice for some things to look at.

Peter Brotherston: You have to subscribe to a Sky subscription package before you can add EPSN to a Sky box.
Freesat does not support subscription services.

Degsy: You can always connect the UHF (aerial) lead to both the Humax and the TV set, if you need to record to programmes whilst watching another live one, otherwise it much less confusing to just use the Humax box.

sharealam: This is much as you might expect - the signals are coming from different transmitters and moving the aerial on the receiver to a higher location or to a window (rather than though a wall) will increase the strength of the signals.

Josh: Yes, this is will happen over the years, but I would not expect it to do so until after switchover is complete as many people will still require cheap, quick access to DVB-T devices during their switchover.

U: As Broadcasting territorial exclusivity with a decoder card is contrary to EU law | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice has shown, there is a single market in the EU for encrypted broadcasts, so Sky is allowed to sell decoders and cards in any EU country.
When I use the word "illegal" I use it in the sense of "against the law" not making a moral case for the law being correct or otherwise.
BSkyB is only partly owned by NewsCorp (39.1%), it is mainly a public listed company in the UK and the majority of the shareholders (60.9%) are not connected with NewsCorp.

Fiona: Please first have a look at Single frequency interference | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice but given your location and the high levels of signals for all services, see also Freeview signals: too much of a good thing is bad for you | ukfree.tv - independent free digital TV advice .
