noob who is sik

hey guys & gals

im new to forums and this is my 1st post!!

just looking to get some info on setting up a new system, i currently pay £50 a month for sky and setanta, im a big sports fan, but lost my job and just cannot afford that anymore! and was wondering if a motorised dish was the answer to pick those foreign channels with the sport on up for free?
ive heard the rumors and that, just dunno if it really is possible!!!

i can get them on pc, but it aint the same

any help or pointed in the right direction, would be gratefully appreciated

A motorised system will cost you about the same as between eight to twelve months of subscription, more if you go for a reasonable sized dish.

My System: IDD CI24 ECONO MM Penta 1.20 Galaxy II 1.2Mtr Polar MTG yes it has been on the arc for 21 years and is still driven by a modified wiper motor from a Ford Anglia. It's like me sometimes groans but always performs

No such thing as for free anymore, well the days of keys cams and cards are just about at an end so before parting with money, you need to weigh up the alternatives. Whatever you do you will not get sports channels for free, those days are long gone, it really depends upon what sports you mean. If you are talking football then a subscription or card sharing are the only ways to go in my opinion, but as many people find out on a regular basis, card sharing servers get taken down by the authorities, 19 servers were confiscated last week in Cyprus

In general you will have to cut your cloth accordingly but for sport there is no cheap option.
