There is always a confusion among the customer wanting to have free subscription of TV viewing is either to go for Freeview or for the Sky Free Sat. These both technologies are totally different and are not interchangeable. The equipment used for the Freeview includes an aerial and a Freeview Box. On other hand for Sky Free Sat you are required a satellite dish receiver and a digibox.

Sky Free Sat is a digital satellite TV viewing system brought to you by Sky Digital. It offers you more than 200 TV channels and 90 radio channels. On other hand Freeview gives you around 34 TV channels and 24 radio channels. So if you want to have more TV channels you can opt for Sky Free Sat.

The cost of both the products also varies. As a Freeview can be purchased for £20, you need to empty your pocket a bit for enjoying Sky Free Sat, which comes for £150 but now you can enjoy this service for half of the cost i.e. £75.

The coverage of Freeview is 73% of UK and Sky Free Sat covers almost 98% of UK. So if your area doesn’t come under the areas covered by Freeview then you are left with only Sky Free Sat. Also if you want to have more channels with wider coverage and have no problem paying a small extra amount go for Sky Free Sat.
