[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 904879, member: 176362"] I got interested in what else is out there when my parents got Sky analogue 25 odd years ago. I quickly found the German channels FAR more interesting than the UK rubbish :D A couple of copies of Wotsat amazed me as to what was out there & I was hooked, although my folks wouldnt let me move the 60cm dish so I could look at the Italian & Arabic channels...... :( When they went over to Sky Digital I ran off with their redundant analogue gear & started experimenting with the dish propped up on bricks, or in snowdrifts in the winter :D That battered, rusting old original Sky analogue dish is still in use today - its now our Sky Digital dish & will relocate with us when we eventually move house - I need to be different to everyone else :D [/QUOTE]
