Is there anything out there?

I have, ahem, acquired up a Eurosky box and hooked it up to an pre-existing existing Sweetie dish and can now get several German channels. I guess it is pointing at the Astras. Any ideas on what else I might pick up and what I will need to do so? Thanks!

My System: WinXP/Firefox 85cm Transparent dish and 3 LNB's One diseqc to Sky Star 2, and one diseqc to TM1500 and looped to a very old Pace MSS100 analog box

Most important for me is that we still have Eurosport International,
broadcast from Germany with English language commentary.

Sometimes in stage events like the Tour de France their techies forget to press the button and at start up the commentary continues in German -
but the graphics are there to tell us who us who is on camera and where
he is in the overall standings. Thats the same as Eurosport.de digital so I wont suffer that much when we lose the analogue broadcast.

Sadly we are in the last days of analogue. A few old die-hards left (mostly German) but eventually everyone will need to upgrade to digital.

Shame this. In some ways, at least, analogue (single dish) was easier to set up
