Freesat Launch Gets Closer

We were told that the new Freesat Digital TV platform would be with us in Spring of this year and have yet to see any firm dates published or any advertising campaigns to start. But it looks as if it’s only round the corner.

Argos seem to be ready or nearly ready for Freesat, with Freesat receivers listed on their website but not yet available to purchase it shouldn’t be very long until the launch. Other retailers are almost definately taking stock of Freesat boxes as you read this.

Receivers at Argos vary depending on your budget and what you want from your receiver: starting at around £50 for a basic model and going up to £149 for a full High Definition model there are two box manufacturers, Bush and Grundig at Argos.co.uk

Installation looks set to be around £80 including the supply of the dish, cabling and labour.

If you’re looking to get Freesat keep your eyes and ears peeled for the start of the advertising campaign which will hopefully be with us very soon.

Visit www.freesat.co.uk or check back here for any updates as and when they happen and Argos.co.uk for to see what receivers are on offer.
