Sky+ HD and old TV?

Hi there

Looking to get Sky+ but have noticed that most cashback deals are for Sky HD. Stupid question but... can you connect a HD box to a non-HD TV. And if so, how?

Thanks!

    And if after 12 months, we no longer want to subscribe - can we just buy a card and get Freesat instead?

    they actually give you an HD box regardless of what you order , they just turn off the HD content.

    I got free install etc as an existing customer , compare the cashback sites against whats on offer on the referral thread on here for vouchers

    once you are out of your 12 month contract you can buy a freesat card off them but the sky + bit stops working

    No need. Existing card works as a Freeview from Sky card.
