Hello! Ive just cancelled sky as we get freeveiw where I live ideally want a PVR win wunder model, but also like the sound of the HD Upscaling boxes. Dont want to spend a fortune.
I'm partically fussy about best possible picture quality.

Too much money really and Im in a flat so bit hard to get a sat, unless I can use my already exsiting sky sat?
I only have one input tho, so I wondered if free sat needed two inputs, like sky plus?

You say: "Im in a flat so bit hard to get a sat"
But you say "Ive just cancelled sky"
you can use freesat on your sky box? all you do phone them up they send you a card out,
OR
when we told sky to fook off they put us on freeset without asking.

If you have cancelled sky then you can just use your existing equipment to watch all the free to air channels. If you leave your existing sky card in it will allow you to watch channel 5, sky three and a few others i think.

That'll just give you the same bad quality as any other freeview box.

Could have got a few months of sky hd with decent picture quality for the price of 2 freeview boxes.
