hi there. my friend has just moved into a house with no aerial installed and she is not allowed to install one because the landlords wont let her! ive got freeview kinda working with an indoor aerial! but she has a ntl cable sticking out of her wall and i have followed it down the outside wall to a junction box outside the property! which means ntl is installed or was once installed! i have purchased a jerrold anologue ntl cable box off ebay for her! my questions are:

1. if i install this will i pick up the free channels ntl broadcast down their cables?

2. if i connect the jerrold anologue cable box up to the ntl cable and then connect the freeview box to the rf output on the back of the jerrold anologue cable box, will the freeview box be able to pick up all freeview channels with clear reception?

please reply asap, i would appreciate this so much, thank you.

p.s. sorry is this is in the wrong section, i had no idea where to post it!
