[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 759056, member: 323322"] We're missing something here ....... Free Channels are not Encrypted (Apart from a handful like Five US). What you are probably seeing is the wide-beam regional variants of some ITV Regions etc. All BBC Channels, plus narrow beam ITV Regional Channels, Standard Definition (but not HD) versions of ITV2,3,4, Channel 4 , Five etc are clear and unencrypted from Astra 2D. This is permitted because the overspill outside the UK is at acceptable levels, unlike the other birds at 28.2/28.5E (which are more or less pan-European so require controls such as Encryption in many cases). Astra 2D requires a bigger Dish than you have. Please look at _http://www.flysat.com/28east.php You will find all the Channels you do get are higher in frequency than 11222 and that the ones you want are those from 10714 to 10936. Using a different Receiver won't help as the issue is dish size. [/QUOTE]
