Foxtel IQ2 and local HD channels

Question

I have foxtel IQ2 as well as the complete package and was wondering if anyone knows whether the local HD channels (10 HD, 7 HD etc) will become available soon through foxtel? I don't have any other antennas hooked up to my tv so at the moment can't access these.

Answer 1

Many people are able to get the local HD channels with no antenna and no cable.  Just like the tv's in the 1950's where they only had a "rabbit ears" antenna on top of the tv.  You don't even need that.  See if you get lucky. /

Answer 2

I read and saw in the Science Tech magazine (US) that you may purchase a small antenae device specifically to access all those extra HD channels for free.Try going to your local d**k Smith Electronics shop and ask about it.
