    Oops so i have to get a seperate modulator. I thought the one in the humax was ok.

    The one in the Humax is internally connected to the Freeview Tuner. The old Topfield pvrs had external inputs to it's built in modulator. Humax one do not have this capability.

    You need one that has it's own Video and audio inputs. They used to be cheap as chips. But now they are harder to find.

    Here's another one

    Either will do. The Amazon one doesn't need the scart adaptor because it has seperate RCA phono video and audio inputs.

    You don't have to be a member of Amazon. If you are you can get free delivery. If not you just have to pay for delivery.

    The linked item isn't on Prime and the price includes free delivery.

    What do you mean by does not work. Does the display light up when powered and are you able to select channel 21 ?

    How about this one

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UHF-TV-LINK-Digital-RF-Modulator-AV-to-RF-Video-Converter-Adapter-RCA-IR-CATV/324166064601?hash=item4b79cd99d9:g:QQUAAOSw7BdexJll

    You will need a couple of F to Belling Lee adaptors. Screwfix sell them.
