Okay, I have a Samsung LE32R87BDX tv, and an aerial. I scan for channels and pick up 1, 2, 3 and 4. I also picked up E4 but with bad quality.

Theres no other channels and according to the freeview site I should have loads of them. How do I get all the channels, do I have to change some options? The instruction manual has nothing about freeview in side it.
 
Hold on, does this TV even have freeview? The site I ordered from said it did have.

Whats this about buying an IDTV?

If I change it from TV to DTV then it just says 'No Signal' and doesn't give me the option to search for any channels. The channels I get are 1, 2, 3 and 4. Although, when I first opened downstairs and plugged it up to the aerial outside that my main tele uses, I got a really fuzzy E4, and yes the aerial is plugged directly into the TV.

I have a really cheap aerial anyway, would getting a freeview box help?
 
Ok, so as no-one answered I just got a box anyway.

I've plugged everything in and it sets it all up and starts to 'Search for UHF channels'

But it doesn't find any and asks me to check my antenna connection. :(

I'm stuck.
 
I was already doing the DTV menu button scan thingy.

But now it works, thanks to Jonny. I just moved the box into a different place and I picked up some channels, moved it again and got some more. Just gotta find the best one. :) Thanks a lot.
