What do I need to get Freeview? … and how much will it cost?

Switching to digital may seem daunting, but it's pretty simple really. For most people all they need to go digital is a Freeview receiver - and they start at just $79.

Here are a few steps to take you through the process. Let's start with what you've already got…

LOOK
Do you have a satellite dish or UHF aerial (outdoor / indoor)?

Many homes already do. But if you don't have one, you can either install one yourself or arrange for an installer to set it up for you. 

CHECK
What's the Freeview coverage in your area?

Check Your Coverage

Before you buy any Freeview equipment, we recommend that you check the Freeview coverage in your area - and whether a satellite dish or UHF aerial is your best option.
