We are thinking about going away this weekend but my oh is worried about missing the footie.  We have a baby so may not be able to go to some pubs with him.
We have an electric hookup and just wanted to check that we won't be out of order running a portable telly from it (with the volume down of course).  I still haven't got the hand of what is and isn't acceptable in regards to hookups.

Good idea to call before and nice to know that we can try the TV as a back up.

Thanks Guys

The radio can be back up plan 3 - my OH is quite keen to see the action.

We ran my OH's laptop and freecom system from our EHU last week - no problem.

What was the picture like, looking for a laptop tv solution but finding it difficult to get some decent reviews / feedback on the various types. Have fitted a TV card to the desktop in the past and it was ok ish, slow and glitchy at times, needed main aerial connection to get any picture (was a WinTV PCI card)

We bought a 7" LCD Medion telly from Aldi about a month ago and went camping with it a few weeks ago.

Was able to watch the World Cup games while camping in the Lake District.(and reception is supposed to be bad there)
