It would just easier to ask on what your confused about in honesty. Because at this moment am not sure exactly what it is that you want either

I assume that you have read the sat section?

Just to add we can only discuss certain things as the other things are '' Prohibited '' And that is where Google is your best friend.

Basically, you have a box, and a dish on a motor to point at different satellites.

These days it's as simple as that.

Of course, you could stay fixed on one satellite, ie, Freesat or Freesat From Sky, but there's more choice etc with a motorised dish.

Aside from that, read a few threads in the sat section if there are specific points of interest, or post questions on any specifics.

Hope that helps.

thanks for replies. is it just as simple as you say. buy a box and dish hook them up and search. or do you have to pay extra to recieve channels, i read a bit on another web page quoting prices in $$'s for sky which was $8 per month and others such as sky italia ect ect.

Again thanks

Yes it as simple as Brian had stated above

Ppv channels will need subscription. Either u can pay the provider or use Google and you get your answer in regards to that.
