If you want to add this then you'll have to put up a terrestrial aerial and feed the signal into the RF input connector. The STB will combine the two before sending them to the RF output. However, the television at the receiving end will have to understand both analogue and terrestial digital - and I'm not sure that most systems will do this.

Sorry it's been a while since I posted but.....
I understand that the STB decodes the DVB-C singnal and then will o/p in RF through the ariel, or through the scart, and you can tune in to what ever RF frequency the STB is transmitting on. But in addition to this, I also (with out any other ariel in) get BBC1, 2, ITV, C4, C5 RF channels as well, on their standard broadcast freqs. Coincedenly the RF also shows a poor Sky Sports 2 Picture, even though we don't have that channel.
Now I don't know which RF Freq the DTT channels get broadcast at, but I was wondering if the STB would also output that....
