[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 522272, member: 256551"] Hi, If the landlady is watching Sky, the dish is pointed at the satellites at 28 degrees east. _http://www.lyngsat.com/28east.html All you need to do is to purchase a FTA digital satellite receiver, plug it in, maybe do a channel scan, and you are on your way. You would be able to watch all the free to air channels. If you wanted Sky, you'd need a Sky decoder and subscription. You should be able to pick up a cheap reciever from about £30. The other option is a Freesat receiver, which are about £50, but can only be bought in the UK, argos sell them I believe. A 2nd hand Sky box, would also do the trick if you can hold of a cheap one, but my personal opinion is that they are a PITA for the FTA channels as the EPG scatters them all over, with the pay ones in-between that you can't watch without a card.
