As above it's presumably Astra 2/28.2E (which means that it should probably also be able to "see" Eurobird 1/28.5E unless this needs an 80cm+ dish rather than the Sky mini dish?) - I just wasn't sure if some Sky dishes were still on Astra 1/19.2E - but I would have thought that the receiver would tell you what satellite things were coming from? Anyway, also as mentioned above the addition of a FTA receiver should let you see the FTA channels on these satellites. Remember the limitations of tuning multiple differenty TVs (or recorders) to different channles at the same time though (e.g. multiple or dual/quad/octo LNBs, separate cable feed for each, separate receiver for each etc.).
' channels in peace. peace for the rest of us that is . the tv receivers can also receive terrestrial tv and one can receive digital from the 4 irish stations via the normal rooftop aerial.Presumably only the one channel can be viewed in all locations served by this box at any one time? And presumably you have a two or dual LNB setup on the dish so that two separate channels (one via Sky box and one via FTA box) can be viewed at the same time?the sky box supplies all the rooms in the house except one and this is where the other box is located. that way the cu offspring can watch those 'music
I thought that the Sky box was serving all of the house and the FTA box was serving just one room?
You must be pointing at a UK/NI transmitter or a deflector so because most people in Ireland will not be able to get anything other than RTE1/2, TV3 and TG4 via an analog terrestrial antenna pointed at their local transmitter.
