Hope someone can help me. I have an old analogue receiver and dish which I inherited when moving house. It picks up european Eurosport for free which is fanatasic. However I have not been able to tune the receiver into Eurosport 2. Is it possible to pick up Eursport 2 on analogue and if so how?

Thanks.

No - ES2 is only available in digital.

As a matter of interest and appropriate to this thread, do we have any projections (educated guesses or otherwise) at all as to how long the analogue transmission will last?

This will all depend on SES getting their way in forcing the fta 19E digital channels into encryption.

That will be a sad day as My own main reason for having a analouge dish is to recive eurosport and cnn. I know cnn wont be a problem but I assume once eursport international goes from analouge thats it game over.

By 2009 looks like the only Analogue in Europe will be on 5 west, sales of analogue in France reached over 250.000 in the last 12 months.

Can you confirm this info?
I can't get the free digital french channels from AB3 since I moved house a few months ago. Does anyone know if they are still there?
I can still get the analogue ones.
