I do have Freesat allright but I was led to believe that there are a few stations such as Fiver and Sky Sports News on Freeview, which are not on Freesat.

Yes, I heard over on boards.ie _www.boards.ie/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=40 allright that it would be 2012 before the signal increases. I thought maybe something might happen before then though but obviously not. Thanks for the reply Tom. I'm surprised you cannot get it. I would have thought...

I know that discussing DTT here on this site, never mind the Freesat section, is a little out of place but I hope you don't mind. I was just wondering if anybody knows if the Freeview signal in Northern Ireland is going to be increased. I am in the free state and the signal is not strong enough...

Yes I concur this is a brilliant site. Eamonn if you want more specific info relating to Ireland such as the much anticaped Irish DTT then go to boards.ie and follow this route: Tech - Cable & Digital T.V

I did some research since my last post. As well as having a integrated sat reciever I also want a tv which will be compatable with MPEG 4 as the Irish version of Freeview will use this coding. (Irish DTT is not out yet) It is my undersanding that Freeview uses MPEG 2. Can anyone tell me if the...

I'm based in Ireland and we don't have freesat here but i presume that that panasonic tv would be suitable for free to air. Am I correct with this presumption?

Is it possible to get a tv which has an inbuilt free to air reciever. Is this what dvb is?

thanks for that analoguesat. i'm not sure what measurement my dish is but i reckon it is at least 90cm. i'll give it a go anyways.

hi all, i'm trying to find Eutelsat W2 16E to get some fta stuff. i have a dish on astra (the one with bbc 1-4, itv 1-4) and a second one on hotbird. i believe that Eut. W2 is somewhere in between. am i correct? could someone also tell me please what tilt i should have the dish at in relation...

the evidence and witnesses against michael are very suspect. jordy chandler has left the country and he has not spoken to his mother in 10 years. i was not sure before the case but i now reckon jackson will be proven not guilty.
