KMJ: Many many thanks for your info & advice! I know my area doesn't work with a Freeview box, (though other areas in town do as it's down to reception), so buying any kind of Freeview box isn't an option for myself or I'd have bought one ages ago to improve the lousy reception! Very helpful info as no one I asked seemed to know the status quo at all. Cheers :)

My mother in the north of Ireland (Ulster) wonders if she will continue to receive Irish channels such as RTE1, RTE2, TV3, TG4 once we switch over? She has a TV with built in Freeview and another TV has a Sky box & dish with expired viewing card.
Also, I live in the south (Ulster) and while I want to receive my normal Irish channels, I don't want to lose BBC, UTV and Channel 4! Even if I got those basic channels as I do on terrestrial TV, I'd be happy. I only have a basic TV and not interested in upgrading to HD or a Sky subscription. Saorview in the south (irish Freeview) ONLY offers the 4 irish channels & the box costs 100! Plus you need to get a new aerial.. Any help appreciated, even re mum's situation.
