won't use ywllow house and i haven't a clue what sat my dish is pointing at.........one that gives me channels
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.).won't use ywllow house and i haven't a clue what sat my dish is pointing at.........one that gives me channels
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' channels in peace.
I thought that the Sky box was serving all of the house and the FTA box was serving just one room?yes on both counts. If someone in say a bedroom wants to watch one of the fta channels then everyone else has to watch that channel too ( except for the seperate room )
I have one fta sky dish and two seperate boxes. one is the normal sky box and the other is just a digital receiver. the sky box supplies all the rooms in the house except one and this is where the other box is located.
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.but of course you can just watch terrestrial tv anywhere in the house which is ok around here except for bbc2 which has almost disappeared. Ch 4 is only on terrestrial tv.
