    Hey, just bought a cheap freesat box, will have it next week. Its for bedroom, so won't be used too often. Just curious as to what the best region/postcode to use would be? I guess a Belfast postcode would be most applicable news wise, but I think the likes of Manchester gets more HD?

    Pick WIA 1AA - if you pick a region like NI you get regional variations and that means Give My Head Peace or whatever abomination they now show at 10 PM.

    If you really want BBC Norn Iron tv then it's in the 900s by default. ITV variations can be tuned in manually and stored on a favourites list.

    I use a Newry Post Code BT34

    I suppose I'm a little old fashioned from the cablelink days, I like seeing UTV

    I usually use London as NIRL has a habit of putting on Spotlight or some other sheite that means the show I actually want to watch like starts half an hour late.

    For those of you that use a NI postcode, is 103 UTV or UTV HD?
