Is that using an LCD TV? Using a standard CRT I never had problems, but with the LCD, things appear "grainy" or I get some "Ghosting" (imagine very faint mouse tails)

The 'problem' with connectivity here, I presume, is that the analogue stb does not have a scart or phono connector, only RF.

Correct.

Does the analogue stb have the combiner dongle on the back?

No. All it has is a small silver metal box tacked onto the back of the SA 8602 covering what looks like a copper coloured lead going into the back of the box. Upon this metal box are two connections Input\Outpu both taken up by two NTL cables. The one on the left is connected to the ariel whilst the one on the right goes to the tv. There doesn't seem to be any other connections available upon it.

Assuming the Freeview box has an RF output, you could try plugging it into the combiner.

I don't suppose you have a picture of the "combiner dongle" to which you refer do you? As to be honest, I have no idea what one looks like

The main problem I would forsee is if the Freeview signal & the Analogue stb signal were similar frequencies & interfered with each other.

Hopefully, this will be a problem I don't face. But, I imagine I shall at some point how shall I get around it for when the time comes?
