Default NTL - Question Analogue / Digital

Hi,

Firstly i hope this is the right forum to be posting this question.

I recently purchased a Eurovox as i belived at the time that i had a live ntl feed going into my house. After some research i found out that i am in an analogue area and not digital. Thus making my box useless.

When i scan through my current ntl (just a socket in the wall going directly into my tv) I can pick up 7/8 channels e4 etc... But i can see other channels sky sports (i think) and some movie channels. But quality is very, very bad and you can't make out anything. Is there a box that can be used to tune in the analogue channels ?

Thanks for your time

Yes you can get analogue cable boxes, i used to have a chipped one, you dont get many channels on them now, no films but i think you still get sports etc.
