[QUOTE="Cordless, post: 18713, member: 175542"] It is obvious that as the footprint stands many people in Europe will be able to receive the BBC channels on modest size dishes. In the future however (I'm pretty sure in saying) Astra will use the same frequencies that 2D uses for Eastern Europe as well. This will cause interference for the central area as they will pick up a dual signal, basically wiping it out! Western France, Holland and Iceland will be OK but Germany will lose out. I'm sure the Astra Satellite 1K that was destroyed a few months ago was going to try these "dual" transmissions. Although of course that would have been a 19E satellite! [/QUOTE]
