No, you will need a satellite dish to receive a satellite signal for services like Sky or Freesat, as these are specific channels and programmes only broadcast via this medium. These can be installed in a similar way to a standard TV aerial by a recognised engineer.
Helmsdale
Helmsdale is a village on the east coast of Sutherland, in the Highland council region of Scotland. The village is on the A9 road, at a crossroads with the A897, and has a railway station on the Far North Line. Buses operate approximately every 2 hours Mondays-Saturdays and infrequently on Sundays from Helmsdale to Brora, Golspie, Dornoch, Tain and Inverness in the south and Berriedale, Dunbeath, Halkirk, Thurso and Scrabster in the north. West Helmsdale lies across the river from the main village above the train station. Old Helmsdale is immediately to the north while East Helmsdale is a settlement no more than a mile to the east. Helmsdale is a fishing port at the estuary of the River Helmsdale, and was once the home of one of the leading herring fleets in Europe. The river itself is famous for its fishing. Helmsdale Castle, the remains of which were destroyed in the 1970s in order to construct the new A9 road bridge, was the site of the murder of the 11th Earl of Sutherland in 1567. The Earl and his Countess Marie Seton were poisoned by Isobel Sinclair. The modern-day village was planned in 1814 to resettle communities that had been removed from the surrounding straths as part of the Highland Clearances. Facilities in Helmsdale include an independent hostel, a culture centre, an art gallery, and an inn. Helmsdale is widely known for its Highland Games which are run on the third Saturday in August each year. Best known is the evening Marquee Dance when the village population of 700 more than doubles thanks to visitors participating in the dance. Helmsdale is additionally the home of Bunillidh Thistle F.C. and Helmsdale United.
