Re: satellite box

either would be okay, freeview (as long as its in an area that can get it), freesat, or sky via subscription.

Re: satellite box

If you have a poor picture through a TV aerial then the liklihood is that you won't be able to pick up all freeview channels.

If you fix a small dish to the caravan you'll be able to pickup Sky and Freesat. Both good options.

Re: satellite box

Yep id go for freesat all day long as long as you have a line of site the picture is always guaranteed where as an aerial your restricted to the area you are in.
