Tia Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I have a sky box with card and satellite and they all are connected to TV. However I can still only get French TV channels. I have tried moving the dish but without success. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Probably looking at the wrong satellite. You need Astra 2D at 28.2 deg east of South, sounds like maybe you are pointing at Hotbird (13 deg). Then probably need to do a channel scan from your Sky box. Have a search in the archives - lots of info there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin963 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 10714 H, 10729 V, 10758 V, 10832 H, 10891 H, 10906 V, depending on which region you actually want. The second frequency (all MHz, divide by 1000 for GHz) is Film 4.All run at a symbol rate of 22000 kB/s, with forward error correction of 5/6. The letter refers to Vertical or Horizontal polarisation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooperlola Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Quite.Martin, I had to buy (or thought I did) a special card for the ITV/C4 channels (don't include E4 and More 4 sadly). Are you saying it's possible to get them without doing this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin963 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 No, I was referring to Film 4, which is free to air. AFAIK you still need a card for the ones you mention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juswundrin Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 "the ITV/C4 channels"C4 is still encrypted, but ITVs 1-4 are all free to air (ie, no card needed) now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
