Why do lines appear on my screen when I connect my HD Digital Box to my TV with a Scart lead?

Make sure you connect your HD Digital Box to your HD ready TV using a HDMI lead.

Will I need an aerial upgrade?

No. freesat is not delivered through your aerial but via a satellite dish, so no need for aerial upgrades, but you will need a satellite dish.

Do I need a HD-ready television to watch high definition programmes?

You need a HD-Ready television and a HD Digital Box in order to view high definition programmes in high definition. You will also need to connect the two together using a HDMI lead.

In which direction should my satellite dish be positioned?

Your satellite dish should be fitted on a South facing wall in the direction of 28.2° East of South.

Can I connect more than one freesat receiver to my satellite dish?

Yes you can. You will need to have an LNB fitted that has more than one connection. LNB’s typically have 1, 2, 4 or 8 connections. You will need one connection to the LNB for each freesat Digital Box.

Can I use the satellite dish that is already at my property?

Maybe. We recommend that your existing installation receives a full ‘health check’ from a qualified installer. Your retailer will be able to advise you about this when purchasing your freesat Digital Box.
