[QUOTE="mybrotherjohn, post: 506114, member: 286234"] Hi, We have just moved to France across the border from Basel, Switzerland and my wife wants Brit TV. I have worked out we need to point an 80cm dish at Astra 2D, but what I can't find out is if any receiver will do (ie a French or Swiss one) or whether I need to buy one in the UK and take it over with me. Other questions I have are: [LIST] [*]I assume that the LNB is generic and that I can use any. Is this correct? [*]Also there seem to be quite a wide variation on prices for receivers. Is there anything in this or is this simply down to user interface stuff. (We are not interested in doing anything other than receive so a simple one will do for us) [/LIST]Many thanks in advance for any opinions, advice, comments! Cheers [/QUOTE]
