MY new HD tv needs an aerial?
I bought a new 22″ hd ready tv from tesco today (the one with the ipod dock), why do i need an aerial to get a signal for free view and for analogue :S
Because Freeview is broadcast TV and if you want to receive anything broadcast over the air, you need an antenna.

Quote: Who Gets Freeview TV?
Freeview TV is delivered in the same way as American broadcast TV — by transmitters. You need an aerial antenna to receive Freeview TV signals. The Freeview website recommends using an outdoor antenna as opposed to an indoor antenna.
