Don't waste your money. All the rebroadcasters will be gone sooner rather than later as the Spanish authorities crack down on this illegal activity.

If you want UK TV then you should be thinking of a satellite system, I'm afraid.

If you have any close neighbours, it may be possible share the dish, in order to reduce costs.

My System: Zone1, DSI8215 SkyHD, Thomson DSI4214, TF5000CI, Dreambox DM800 HD PVR - Nab BH0.12, TM-5200D, Gibertini 104cm, SNH-031, 36v Actuator, Vbox-II, 42°E to 30°W, Sling Media, Televes H45 Digital Processing Analyser, Satlook Micro+G2 NIT, Rover SDM 1s

If you are unable to share a dish with a neighbour then you will need to get your own dish set up for English TV.

Nice region by the way and as your reasonably close to the Torrevieja area you will require a quality 1.8m to 2.4m dish for reception of Astra2d/freesat - 24/7.

This will vary on location of course and is a guide only. If you travel 5km North or South and the results will differ considerably in that region.

Some have reported 2d signals with much smaller dishes such as a 1.35m but signals will definitely come and go throughout the day and evening. As this region is a cold spot for 2d signals, I would suggest asking around to see what other local residents recommend re: dish sizes for reception.

many are in the same boat and some are also trying without success to tune into other signals...

My System: 1.8m motorised with Topfield TF5000CIP

HK, I'm in the same Telemicro situation and looking for options to get BBC1, 2 and ITV. So far it seems that a huge 1.8m or 2.4m dish is the only way to go but I'm still checking because that is a massive dish which will have to go on my roof.

Gibbo, option is larger dish for UK spot beam, 80cm for South beam/Ebird or around 120cm/135cm for North beam as explained on the other thread you posted.
Transponder 12.402v is carrying ITV

Could consider sling media for iptv
