I have one of those portable sat kits from Maplin that we use in the carvan.

It works pretty well, but I can't seem to get Virgin1 on it. Am I getting Freesat on this or just a group of free channels?

I know V1 should be on Freesat, but not sure if I am missing something.

Thanks in anticipation of help.

V1 isnt part of freesat. On satellite its encrypted as part of the sky package

Oh, that explains it then. Thanks.

Looks like the TV pages in the paper are wrong as they show it as Freeview and Freesat.
