Sesat

[tabs]

Hi

This is a great site, have been avidly reading the advice but have a question. I have sky basic package at $15 per month but only have that cos kids love Disney channel. I have been trying to find out whereelse I can get disney channel but in uk it is either sky or virgin ot tiscali via broadband , none of which is good for me so I started to look into accessing other satellites which led me here!!

I know dstv which a south african channel does have disney and is on the sesat satellite , is it possible for me to tune into this with the right equipment in the uk? I am still reading your help and researching whta equipment i will need so am just a beginner but basically I woul like to keep my sky dish and receiver to get freeview and get another dish and receiver to try to get disney and maybe some sports too. I am very pc literate to a hacking standard but obviously am new to satellite. Any pointers to other good resources to research setting up home satellite systems would be much apprerciated. Cheers guys.

Get a Technomate 1000D

There are loads of Disney channels that can be opened with this receiver, I know there is definately some Disney stuff on 19.2e and 10e that can be opeend with a Patched 1000D

You won't get any of the African stuff on Sesats African beam over here without a huge dish 2m+ You can get stuff off Sesat but only on the fixed european beam

Hi m8 your find your channels as nano says But for receiver get a vantage it a superior satellite receiver & better.nano m8 you must tell guys on the vantage.tms have been very good,but the vantage is better.Also you could use your sly card with the vantage.If your happy with disney channels on 19 east,you can drop your sub to sly

Hi remlap,im just saying vantage is the better satellite receiver here.No offence to the technomates owners,its just a fact.I have both satellite receivers.If i was new in satellite,i would want to be told whats best for about the same money.

Thanks for your replies nanochicken and satsid.......much appreciated. I was looking at a budget of about £120 for receiver, dish , lnb etc in order to primarily get disney and to continue this as a hobby. Would you say it is doable for that?

Good point, Vantage might be a good buy once freeview shows up here.
