Wow, wrong forum. Try posting in the Satellite forum and you might get a better response.

Here is good.

It won't work. You are too far south for the Freeview box to pick up a signal from Northern Ireland. It might become useful when Irish Digital Terrestrial TV starts, but it wont be down the country for a couple of years yet (starting to test in Dublin and Co. Louth at present)

A BBC aerial, I wonder are you sourcing from a deflector? What channels can you get? (and not from Chorus)

I know it is a few years ago now but Neenagh could receive the UK channels illegally from a deflector on Keeper Hill. This deflector is now legal for some time and owned by Chorus.

Funny thing is those years ago I could receive Clermont Cairn in Souh East Limerick. It wasn't great and probably given a bit of a boost by the delector.
Cairn Hill was also available, not great, but better than Clermont Cairn.

I am talking over 20 years ago now.
