Default Change Aus TVs to receive UK programmes

Having had to move back to Scotland because of family circumstances can anyone tell me how to change my two Australian TVs (bought new just before having to return) Panasonic & Palsonic to receive UK transmissions
Many thanks,
Captain Dave

Many thanks someone,

If you can't get it to auto-tune on your UK aerial

then its a set top box for you

I'd recommend a Humax unit

Good idea . Maybe a Freeview/Freesat one would be a wise choice?

What models are your TVs? Try looking up the model numbers on google and get a copy of the manual. Although the UK and OZ use PAL for digital TV the audio streams can be subtly different so the sound can be out of synch. With a cable box , or satellite dish you use HDMI so should be no problem. Some of the panasonics can be switched between systems - ours does PAL, PAL60, NTSC (US and Asia) and SECAM (French). Our freesat of course does not work here as it's UK Freesat, but the TV works fine on local cable box.
Post the model numbers here and I'll see what I can find out for you. Or send me a PM.
