I have recently moved into a property in Cheltenham, UK (not a new build) which doesn't have a standard TV aerial. The property has a satellite dish with a split coaxial cable into the property.
I bought the SAMSUNG QE55Q60BAUXXU 55 Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR QLED TV with the assurance that I would be able to plug the satellite aerial directly into the TV and the inbuilt satellite decoder would allow for Freesat TV to be viewed when tuned.
When I tune the SAMSUNG QE55Q60BAUXXU to Freesat, I'm prompted to enter my UK Postcode. When I enter my postcode, I receive an error message that "The postcode you entered is not available. Channels will be scanned without a postcode". The channels which are tuned are random international channels and not BBC1, BBC2, ITV etc.
I have also tried to tune to Satellite, but the Astra 2E, 2G satellite - which relays the UK Freesat channels - is not available on the list.
Therefore, I'm unable to get any of the 'free-to-view' TV channels (BBC, ITV etc) as I can't tune my SAMSUNG QE55Q60BAUXXU 55" Smart 4K Ultra HD HDR QLED TV to Freesat.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to tune my TV to Freesat so I can watch terrestrial TV? Many thanks
