Hi i have acquired an analogue satellite receiver from the attic and i wondered if there are any analog satellite channels left.
I know that Astra turned off is analog system in 2012.
 
thanks for that i will look in to it

There are no analogue satellite tv channels receivable in Europe on any sensible sized dish. As you say the last remaining European channels were shut down in 2012. Unless you have an interest in playing with Videocrypt encryption(*) the best thing to do is dispose of it in the WEEE recycling skip at your local tip.

(*) search the forum for the recent videocrypt thread if you are

The bloke who could see 70W in the Midlands was using a 2.2m dish & the signals were very weak - you arent going to get a big enough dish in a 40sq feet garden

The dish would be near vertical so there is a small chance a 4.5m (15') could fit in the space on a king post with little overhang
 
ok but I've heard of a satellite, Atlantic Bird 3 that has analog french channels ?

Thats the old 5W bird. Analogue closed down off it a decade ago! Even AB3 has been pensioned off!

There are NO analogue channels left broadcasting to Europe.
 
ok thanks guys if you here of any thing tell me.
 
ok there is some software hack tv and you can use the hack rf to broadcast on analog satellite. so i am going to try it.
and it can do bsb d-mac and my dad still has the bsb box in his shed so i am going to try that as well.
 
Thread closed. The questions have been answered.
