have you considered a satellite dish instead?

If you dont want to subscribe to Murdoch's empire, you can still get a dish

You can get BBC, ITV and CH4 without subscription.

No you can't. This stopped a while back and the FTV card line closed down
over a month ago. All existing FTV cards are expected to be turned off some
time this summer.

At that point you will only be able to get BBC channels - which went free
to air from satellite a fortnight ago. ITV, C4 and C5 will only be
available to those with some sort of subscription (the cheapest being a sub
to Zee TV).



Fancy paying to see the adverts on SAT that you can see for free on
terrestrial. One step forwards and one back...
