Why hasn’t my TV got a SCART socket?

If your TV doesn’t have a SCART socket, then you can get an ‘RF Modulator box’ – it converts a SCART feed to an aerial feed. It creates a “Modulated” TV channel that your TV can tune into. Plug a SCART socket in one end, and an aerial lead to your TV in the other, and then tune in the TV.
