[QUOTE="geoffreys, post: 375081, member: 176167"] As you say we have had these rumours before, but this time it does seem to be perhaps more serious. This time my own satellite installer, based in Paralimni, was telling me only last week that his (usually reliable source) information was that the 2A and 2B satellites were from 1st May switching over to spot beams (beamed onto the UK as 2D does) in order to conserve the life of the batteries and so extend the service life of those 2 satellites. I suppose we shall have to wait and see, however if true we will still be able to receive them, but would require a larger dish just as we do now for 2D. Geoff Cyprus [/QUOTE]
