[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 369230, member: 6969"] Cheapest modulator is an old VCR connected to the satellite receivers scart socket. Loop your tv aerial into the vcr then out from the vcr to the input of the multiswitch. Then any tv will be able to tune into freeview, or switch to analogue tv and tune into the satellite receiver. Not all vcr's are suitable, some have a daft habit of timing out and switching off after a pre set time, so probably an old one. It doesn't matter if it even works or not (as far as the tape mechanism is concerned) I have two in use for just that purpose. [/QUOTE]
