Many thanks for the reply. At the moment I am in Belfast and I will not be back in Sligo until Thursday so I cannot be exact about the programmes. However ones we are definitely receiving are Eurosport; Eurosport News; BBC World and Aljazeera. The rest of the free channels are all non-English speaking and there are many of them. I have of coursed scanned both Astra and Eurobird but cannot find any BBC or ITV channels. I am beginning to think I am on the wrong satellite. Sorry if I cannot be. more precise, the technology is a foreign language to me! If this is not enough information, I will get back to you again when I have more details about on the channels.

If thst doesn't work, then you may need to add the transponder frequencies to Eurobird. You will find them here

PS. Mickha, thinks you may be on the wrong satellite and he may be right.
