whats wrong with the alba one's etc??

sumbody told me to go to argos aswell!!

how do i know if i got a good enough ariel aswell?, im going to set it up in a room, that already has a telewest digital box, so im guessign the ariel it uses will be ok, to use for the freeview box aswell??

I have a sony freeview in the lounge and the children have cheap makes in their bedrooms - there is no difference in reception and we're in a poor reception area.

of course the cheaper ones may breakdown earlier?

i need setanta and all the other pay per view channels, as i have all the codes to view them for free!!

the Curry's / Dixons one is good, much better than the cheap sagem one i got from Argos

has Favourites and a better Veiwing Guide and works even though we cannot get a watchable terrestial channel

I have the "cheap alba" which works just fine and only using an indoor aerial?

but then I bought it for around £26 from Sainsburys

I have the Matsui one from Curry's, £28 and works fine with my normal aerial.

The tv guide is great and you can set preferences etc really easily.

If you have telewest digital, don't you receive all the channels you can get on freeview anyway?
