Hi, sorry, but this TV cannot receive Freeview HD channels. It is HD ready, which means it can show a HD picture, such as from a Blu Ray disc or a Sky HD box, but it does not have a built in Freeview HD receiver needed to get the channels.
Sorry but if Sony advertise with HD ready they need to be specific if this is not for freeview. I will log a call with Sony to get this sorted as above answer is not acceptable
Hi, HD Ready has been an industry standard description for the past 6 / 7 years that tells you if a TV is capable of showing a HD picture. It is not just Sony who use this description. A TV has to have a Freeview HD receiver built in to be able to get the HD channels. The first TV that had this capability was only released a year or so ago, so it is a fairly new technology.
Below is a link to some more information about "HD Ready".
