The English commentary is still available on 7°w but not on 13°e.

The delay on these channels is about 7 seconds behind real time which must represent at least four uplink/downlink cycles.

With so many retransmissions of the signal there would seem plenty of scope for technical problems. But why Art can solve these problems for 7°w but not for 13°e remains a mystery.

Doubt a 1m is anywhere near big enough.

And you would need to get an irdeto card instead of the viaccess card issued for 13°e.

must say it was a little quiet though??

halfway through the game i wondered what the score was at the arsenal game, so i quickly flicked forward a channel..... and nearly blew my chuffin speakers up Whooaaaaa!!
