    hey folks just a quick Q.
    on www.lyngsat.com it says these chanels are free. Would you still need a FTA Card to get them?

    Erm, only if you have a dish the size of a car bonnet! And then some.....

    You won't be able to get it with a standard Sky dish :( Sky (on Astra and Eurobird) is at 28 degrees E, Intelsat 804 is way, way off in the horizon at 64 degrees E.

    I like your thinking though :) Some lad in Saudi is probably trying to make head nor tail of "Pop Idol"!! :p:p

    No worries at all :)

    When I saw it earlier, I thought about it too. But the Saudi watching Coronation Street seemed a funnier prospect!

    3644 R? Isn't that CBand? I thought you needed a huge dish for cband, not to mention a different LNB for L/R polorisation and possibly a different reciever?
