Do you know if your Freeview digibox has an RF modulator...if you don't know report back with the make/model no.

If your primary reason for wanting to record Freeview is to "timeshift" (ie to record, watch and then delete) then by far the best and easiest way to go about it is to replace your regular Freeview box with a Freeview PVR, and stop using tape for this purpose.

On the other hand, if your primary reason is to record and keep, then I'd similarly recommend a move to a DVD recorder with onboard Freeview. One with a Hard Disk will offer the easy ability to do both.
