Hi, I am wondering if anyone can help:
We have a samsung tv with built in freeview hd, but are trying to get freeview through an old sky box as our aerial doesnt recieve freeview very well. The sky box is working but the picture has a lot of interference and I dont know how to get rid of it! Do you think I need to try and change the RF channel? I think it has automatically set to C68? Thanks

We tried connecting the TV to the aerial wall socket originally but couldn't pick up many freeview channels (not even the 4 main analogue channels) so gave up on that idea. We could get the BBC1-channel 4 in analogue through the aerial but that was really fuzzy. There is a sky dish and cable coming through separately where we rent so we have tried to use the sky box to recieve freeview- we can get more channels but they are all a bit fuzzy. The sky box is connected to the TV using the aerial cable - is that the wrong way to do it?

It is a samsung UE40C6540. I have just found what looks like a possible scart adaptor in the box? Do you think thats probably why the picture quality is bad? Thanks
