I have read through the various comments on getting BBC in Krakow and the need for a 2m+ dish to receive BBC, however would I still need a 2m+ dish if I had a HD subscription?

Thanks

Probably yes - BBC HD is carried on Astra 2D along with the SD channels

Hi,

BBC HD is transmitted on the same spot beam '2D' as all the other BBC programs :)

No need for a subscription for BBC HD :)

Thanks for the info.

I am pleased to say that I have managed to get around the key problem, which was to watch the Grand national and F1 motor racing, by pressing the red button on News 24. By following the interactive links, and going to the sport pages, we were lucky that the Beeb had put both of these on the interactive pages! All I need now is the apprentice to be interactive and that will be job done!
