Simple answer, yes you can. I'll let someone else recommend which one as I have never used one.

I still maintain it's a penny pinching shame they didn't incorporate one in the freeview boxes.

They did .... in the 9200. The 9150 & 9300 don't have them.

Neither does the Foxsat HDR (FreeSAT).

Rgds.

I use one of these with my Foxsat to send the output to a kitchen TV

There are cheaper ones but on these you have to set the output channel using tiny dip switches which is a bit fiddly

They also have one on my beloved Inverto PVR and even though I have 3 of them I still needed to use the RF for the kitchen........ or I'd have needed 4

I bought the modulator Graham uses back in June last year and would also recommend it

You can get one even cheaper here with free delivery

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B...SIN=B000NVUAN8

Can recommend as I'm using the same one also

Saves you £8.44 on the same model from ebay.

Didn't realise it had gone up in price so much since I bought it.
Was only £14 including delivery last year!

Seems Amazon is currently the cheapest at £17.50 as most retailers on ebay are now £20 including delivery.
