Sky Epg 101, 103 In Spain

I'm looking to set up a FTV system at a house near Murcia airport on Spain's Costa Calida(south Costa Blanca).

I've been told that in southern Spain one can't get ITV1 on 103.....you can only get stuff on vertical polaristaion....and it has to be accessed thru add channels etc...my question is this:

Channel Islands ITV is on V polarisation....and BBC 1 Channel Islands looks like it will go onto V polarisation too.....

So....if one could activate an FTV card in Jersey or Guernsey...then take that card to Spain....101 and 103 would get BBC1 and ITV1 automatically...is my theory right or am I being naive?!!

So....if one could activate an FTV card in Jersey or Guernsey

You can receive all channels in southern spain with a 1.3 dish.You can receive all channels in Murcia with a 1.8 dish,now whats the problem?...brian

I've just picked up a Sky eliptical digi mesh dish that is 70cm across with a Grundig lnb on it. Is there any chance of picking up Sky in Southern Spain (south of Granada) with this??
