My System: Sky + Sky HD @ Astra 28.2E Technomate TM 6900 Super Combo HP G6000 using Vista with 2GB Ram, AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor | The Phone number on my expired Irish Card is 0044 8702 404040 Dont know if this has changed or not. The cards look the same only difference is the main 101-104 channels being 101 - RTE 1 102 - RTE 2 103 - TV3 104 - TG4 | ||

My System: Various digiboxes, broken Nokia 9800S, numerous analogue boxes. My lovely little lappy, HP Omnibook 6100 | 0044 is the international access code to the UK, the rest of the number is the same as we use in the UK on our cards - ours only show 08702 404040. | ||

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 ![]() Saved us from the black plague of ignoratio elenchi, he awaits a special badge with jugs |
Well the only sensible answer is get a bigger dish... Setanta ROI is on the steerable beam on Eurobird 1 and thus you are a good few hundred miles off footprint | ||

My System: 30W,7W,13E,16E,19E & 28E Dishes everywhere Darkbox 2008HD Sly+ V3 | Setanta Ireland is available in Lanzarote on a 3M dish but it has to be aligned to Eurobird and subsequently 2D is lost. Another but..... the signal on this bird on a 3m dish usually only lasts until early evening (between 5 and 10 depending on time of year) and does not return until 11am ish next day. Hope this helps | ||

My System: Sky+HD Thomson Sky+ Pace STB Pace | Is it not to do with sky setting the card to ROI or UK via post codes or ROI? If your in scotland your EPG 101 would be BBC scotland and if your in a London post code your epg 101 would be BBC London. To get RTE1 on 101 your card would need to be set up without a post code? No? | ||

My System: .... | Actually, when you call SKY, the operator gets an "Ireland" (or whatever the indicator is set to be internally) in the headset before answering the call. This is standard call centre ops so the operator knows what they are dealing with. | ||

My System: DM 600-S, AB IPBox 9000HD, Moteck SG2100, Fracarro Penta 85 dish, + some puters | RTE is part of Sky's basic Irish package, meaning you have to have a valid Irish card to view it. | |||
