[QUOTE="easysat, post: 592114, member: 175305"] The analogue transmissions on 5°W should continue for a while, at least until the last terrestrial analogue TV transmitter gets switched off in 2012. If you're on the fringe of the coverage area, there's probably not much that you can do except invest in a bigger or better dish. Can you get the free digital channels on 5°W like France 2 and France 3? With a motorised dish, you might be able to pick up M6 Suisse on 7°E, so then you would just be missing TF1. If you read this report, h**p://francenumerique2012.fr/pdf/081020_FRANCE_NUMERIQUE_2012.pdf, page 23, you can see that the government wants to encourage an alternative to TNTSAT. It seems to indicate that they are planning for a complete digital service from 5°W starting from later this year. Maybe this will be FTA like the current analogue service and just rely on the fact few people outside of France will point their dish in the right direction rather than bothering with encryption. The French also have a political interest in beaming their culture to the Francophone countries of North Africa, so this is another reason to go FTA. [/QUOTE]
