19.2E & a FTA reciever on a sky mini dish

[Rossi46]

Hi.
looking to get a cheap FTA reciever
FS4200 Satellite Receiver prob from maplins to connect to a sky mini dish pointing at 19.2e this will pick up fta digital channels

Q.
will a sky mini dish work with this receiver AT 19.2e

and can you still get free channels like eurosport,dsf german sports channel etc have seen a channel list on the astra site that lists many free channels on 19.2E like BVN & ANDALUCIA TV will i get these or are these channels restricted to viewing in there own country
ie.german channels only viewable in germany.
eurosport.dsf etc they used to be free on analogue if i remember years ago

not sure about posting a link.to the astra list but there looks to be many free digital channels on 19.2e

i do have other sky mini dish's with single and quad lnb on them if this helps and a 650mm round ex-analogue dish too

thanks.

I think that the Sky minidish would work, it does where I am. But if you have a spare 65cm dish kicking around, that would perform better.

If the channels are FTA, and you can get a signal, you can watch them anywhere.

The analo.gue channels are still there I believe, but an analogue receiver is needed.

TBH I wouldn't other with a Fortec Star receiver for £40. When you could get a PVR ready Technomate for £45.

New HOT Offers!

pick up an LNB for the old analogue dish while your'e at it. Maplins LNBs are far too expensive. (their cheapest is £15 for a single, LOL)

43cm good for Astra1 in Midlands. Best for 60cm though as said.
