[QUOTE="deepbluesky, post: 136183, member: 176074"] Thanks a lot for your post Chris. Analogue reception was indeed quite easily to cope with if you were out of footprint. You had chances to improve the signal with a LT circuit or in extreme cases a Digitex. Indeed boot_sectorz it's a pity that transmissions are such restricted and i fear that in future they will be much more since in the States very small spot beams are usual, so the Astra 2D is only the peak of an iceberg. The worst will be when frequency reuse starts. Then even you won't know installing a 10m dish what if at all you will get. In my opinion in far future it will be necessary to have broadband internet connections (>10 Mbit/s or even more) so that a known person of yours inside the footprint could stream to your location the station you'd like to see. But what i don't expect is that TV and radio stations all over the world will offer this as a paid service. As long as there are mighty media companies trying to sell their content as much profit making is possible. And do never forget: TV is the easiest way to spread in a short time propaganda, so it's a political and not such a technical problem. [/QUOTE]
