Monitor - TV
 

Hey, is it possible in any way to use a monitor as a tv?

Don't think its possible, but it looks like someones had one set up like this, and was wondering if it were possible.

Its not for the PC, just for a standalone monitor, its for anouther house, I can't really be bothered buying a load of TV's but have some spare monitors about.

Im pretty sure the place has NTL arials if that makes a difference?

You would still need a tuner/i.f. board.

Cheaper to just buy a new portable TV though.
