[QUOTE="DaveU, post: 603473, member: 298351"] Hi, Had a look in here but can't recall posting last summer when I was looking for tips on setting up my Freesat kit. You folks provided all the answers I needed so a belated big thanks. This query is a slightly unusual one I guess. My in-laws have a static caravan where we go for weekend relaxation ( Stella & BBQ style) and it's in a bit of a poor reception area for normal analogue telly. The site is run by the local council and they've provided a small booster aerial to serve the site but it only has the basic terrestrial channels and still not that great reception. Several owners have installed satellite dishes and I was looking to do the same. The site has a very impressive grapevine, (nothing much gets past some people :) ) and word came round that the council were providing "Freeview" via a satellite dish, all we would need was a freeview box and it would be running in a few weeks. I looked at main building and sure enough a new dish has materialized pointing south eastish (Astra ??), with a fancy looking DNB doo dah with 4 co-axe cables which disappear into the building. From the same building, co-axe cable run to the existing booster aerials so I assume there's some techno-wizardry in the building. ;) The question is.......can you get "Freeview" (not Freesat) via such a set up. I appreciate the details are sketchy but wuddaya think?? DaveU [/QUOTE]
