Setting up Freeview is straightforward, whether you're using a TV with built-in Freeview or a set-top box/recorder. Here's a step-by-step guide for both scenarios:

Using a TV with Freeview:

1. Plug in your antenna cable into the TV.
2. Ensure the TV is plugged into a wall socket and turn it on.
3. Access the channel tuning options, usually found in the TV's Menu or Settings. The process may vary slightly depending on your TV's brand.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to tune in the channels.
5. Congratulations! You should now have access to 20 or more TV and radio stations.

Using a set-top box or recorder with Freeview:

1. Connect your antenna cable to the set-top box or recorder.
2. Link the set-top box or recorder to your TV using an HDMI cable or composite cables (provided with the device).
3. Use the remote control for the set-top box or recorder to turn it on.
4. Use your TV remote to turn on the TV and switch the SOURCE input to HDMI or AV. Most TVs will automatically detect the active source, but if not, try different inputs until you find the correct one.
5. Access the channel tuning options on the set-top box or recorder, usually in the Menu or Settings. The exact steps may vary depending on the brand.
6. Great job! You should now have access to 20 or more TV and radio stations.

Quick tip: When using a set-top box or recorder, always use its remote to change channels. The TV serves as a display screen, while the set-top box or recorder handles the task of tuning in TV signals and channels.
