    What do you mean "supposed", have you not checked it before posting?

    I was hoping someone would have replied with "Yeah, it worked for me" Sky Sports works for me anyway as I subscribe. I just read it in another forum and thought people in here would like to check it out. Anyway, the Astra 2D channel has stopped transmitting anything so it doesn't really matter now.

    isn't astra 2C at 19 Degrees East? That would explain why you couldn't tune it in.

    The Astra 2C i was referring to was the Channel ID on SKY. It was a channel set up to broadcast the live launch of Astra 2C. After that, it showed a bit of Sky Sports 2 for a while but unfortunately, it didn't last very long. The Astra 2C bird is now at 19 degrees East until Astra 1K is launched to take the place of 1A which has come to the end of its active service after 13 years in orbit. Then 2C will move to 28E which will probably be early 2002.
