My elderly mother has just bought a LInsar TV with built in DVD. It does not have a built in Freesat we now find. She has a dish with Freesat built into a Panasonic TV in her living room which works well, but we are now being told that to put in cabling necessary for her Kings Road Henley address plus the additional bit necessary for the dish + freesat receiver will cost over £300; and the alternative is a digital aerial but only 8 channels will be available on Freeview: which channels will these be: will she get the 5 main ones plus BBC4/BBC3/More 4/ITV3 for instance? Is this right? Henley is dire reception, I understand. Is it going to improve at all come switchover in April? Is a LInsar TV a reasonable piece of equipment. My mother prefers the built in DVD to avoid complicated extra equipment. Thanks for your help.
