How is a Freeview box connected to a television?
The vast majority of Freeview boxes use a SCART connection to the television. Very old televisions and some modern televisions with small screens may not have a SCART socket. If your television does not have a SCART socket then you will need to purchase a Freeview box with an aerial output (also called RF – radio frequency – output). There are only a very small number of models with this facility. Check very carefully prior to purchase. In many cases, the SCART connection is complicated by the presence of other devices such as VCR’s. The DTG Connection Wizard may help (external link verified Aug-06).
