BJSLIV Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 not sure if watching videos without ariel is okNo you will still have to pay, if you have a set that is capable of receiving TV. PS Especially if you are going to be buying a dish to put on the outside of your house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keelstow Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 won't take set if not lawful but other residents in village seem to think they have a right(??) ....for the £70 annual fee cinema would be better option!set top box is for UK use only but purchase may require proof of addresss so that could be a limitationmartin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tuner is the key. paul (sorry; reading through that I seem to be in posession of a job lot of "actuallys" !) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
