A sky box with no sky card gets all the free to air channels a freesat box wold get.

A sky box wiht a frreesatfomsky card or an ex subscription card will get all the free to air channels, and the free to view channels.

Freeview is a UK ONLY digital terrestrial systems, via a TV aerial. There are channels on Freeview, that are not on Freeview and are sky subscription on satellite.

Freeeview is not available on satellite

So if you want freeview in your sons room, install a tv aerial, buy a freeview receiver, and connect the freeview receiver to the TV areial and off you go.

John, all frequencies should be on http://www.satcodx.com, just select the 28.2East satellite.

To Mike Jones

I have a 1.8 dish in Malta and have trouble getting BBC could you send me the frequencies that you get them on please.
The 1.8 might not be big enough,but one can try.

That’s right but remember you need a HD Plasma or LCD TV, too.

hi all, you say that all channels available on freesat are available on freesky.
i recieve bbc1 my location is corfu greece, i have a 2.4 meter dish, however when i try to view bbchd, it asks me to call a number, it does not say “no signal”
so with that in mind would i be able to view bbchd if i had a freesat box, or indeed a sky hd box,
any replies would be grateful
mike.
