Can you use a sky box as an outdoor aerial?

Can i use a sky box as a freeview box?

• Hi, I already have sky which i am thinking of cancelling and then taking out the sky plus option Then sky can come and set up sky plus. If we cancel and take out a new contract in my partners name we can then get the offers (just they want to charge us more as an existing customer and wont give us the offers, i don't think they look after there existing customers as well as new ones!) anyway so i guess they will come out with a new dish and Equipment which will will have set up in our living room, the old Equipment i would like to use in our bedroom like freeview, if this possible? also would we need to leave the old dish up and run it off there? or can can it be used off the new dish? I know they do multi room but its not worth paying for as it wont be used much. thanks

• Answer:

  All the free to view channels on sky will still work if you cancel the subscription, which you can use as freeview, there are a lot more free channels on sky than on regular freeview which is a bonus the new subscription will be seperate so they will give you a new dish for that, i even used my old sky digital dish with my new tv to pick up freesat,
