Here is a list of channels that are available from
'real' satellite TV on your PC. FlySat Polish TV Channels You would also need a PC satellite receiver card, such as the Skystar, and of course a dish. Satellite TV on my PC - How is this possible? Robbo

This is not a reccomendation as such because I have not tried it. But there is this model that should do the job:-
TechniSat SkyStar USB Plus the site sponsor www.southernsatellite.co.uk does it. It is in the PCI cards section. Just looked at the Technisat website and there is also a basic Technisat Skystar USB Not sure what the difference is without reading it all, but here is the manufacturers website. http://www.technisat.com/ Robbo

I use a minidish for hotbird, but get picture break-up and sometimes loss in really heavy rain. There is not much differnce between Sky dishes and other offset dishes except that the sky dish is a funny shape ( wider, not taller), both use universal LNBs for ku band (the LNB feed shape differs). If you have a minidish already on sky, it will just need swiveling round a bit, and turned up slightly.

Hi Rojo, might be a silly question, but doesn't your Ma-in-law have a TV?
The best option for her would be a sat receiver connected to a tv. Whilst a pc can be used for tv reception as mentioned above, the quality will rely on the laptop spec.
