no
i wish you could.
your freeview tuner will allow you to watch freeview channels on digital terrestial tv
you will need a good digital aerial to receive them.

NO!! it's the same technology - you're connecting a DVB-T (terestrial) tuner to a DVB-C (Cable) Signal. 2 totally different technologies.

if oyu have a Freeview telly or box, you need an roof/loft ariel.

all you get is 4 or 5 channels... nothing like freeview, but used it to check if you have a live vermin feed....
