    No problem cheers!

    Whats the best way of getting freeview on the dreambox for the time being? Is it just a case of taking the aerial wire out of my tv and putting it into the DB?

    you wont get freeview from a sat dreambox , you will get freesat

    as mentioned earlier , the detail is in the name

    run a separate coaxial wire from a quad lnb on the dish to your room to have both working

    freeview comes down the aerial cable and goes into your tv , or freeview pvr or dvd recorder and then to the tv
