    I see this satellite has
    National Geographic Channel Europe; Cinemania ; Discovery Channel Europe
    all FTA.

    What's the prospect of receiving it in the West of Ireland?
    Is it likely that these channels will remain FTA or is it just a test?

    They're part of a new Serbian package which was totally FTA as a carrot and is slowly locking everything down. So no chance of them staying FTA.

    The satellite is easy to get but must be aligned well or you get bad interference from analogue on 19E.

    Yes those and BBC prime etc metioned weeks ago. Erratic at first but now stable all the time on 80cm motorised.

    It was mentioned orignally that it would be short lived. Several channels are "gone" already.
