What Do you get with Freesat from Sky that isn't already open.

It looks like you get five US and Fiver, but is there anything else?
 
Five
Fiver / +1
Five US / +1
Setanta Sport News
Channel 4 HD (HD boxes only obviously)

The card also puts C4 / C5 on the epg and provides the correct regionalisations for BBC & ITV
 
and SKY Three.:)

Curious one noted by my brother. He says that ITV HD is not available on Sky HD boxes - but is available to Freesat users. Does this make sense? Is there any way to get ITV HD on a Sky HD box?
 
No - ITV HD is hidden from Sky boxes.

New addition to the ftv list - Iranian news service Press TV on 515 is reported to be ftv
 
That's a shame about Press TV - It has been FTA for a week or two.

In fact, adding that to all my Boxes was what caused me to investigate my LNB performance above 12600 MHz! (qv).

I rather like dipping into an eclectic mix of News Channels.

Thanks for the bad news (although I may have a $£€ Box somewhere around the place, and there is always Hotbird).
