You can get most channels through sky, but obviously they will still charge. If you want terrestrial digital you can add a "digital key" to the sky box for a nominal cost. Alternatively any digital sat box will do for free to air channels.
Just get a normal arial for the Rai channels or a freeview type box. We had our satellite receiver redirected to 28.5 and now get CBS Action/Drama etc, plus BBC sport streams for F1/ 6 Nations Rugby etc all in English!!! Just listening and watching Vintage TV ........ music from 70's 80's etc. Some good films as well on Movies4Men (3 Channels).
