[QUOTE="ckrys1, post: 4346, member: 175163"] Hi Look at the sun around midday - that`s near enough due south. 15degW is to the right of that a bit and a bit lower in the sky- probably where the sun is at 3-4pm. 27.5W is a bit further to the right. You can find out exactly by checking the azimuth(or angle) from London if you search the web. Try www.satsig.net. Definitely possible to receive Tzu tv and Mac tv, which are in the clear from 15W - I have just watched them. Also a few Iranian channels on this sat in the clear. I get a few testcards from 27.5W and as you say, Lyngsat suggests VTV should be available. I can`t get a signal from Dundee - but you may have a better chance in London. Perhaps someone else can help here? £800 sounds slightly steep for the whole system, but that may be a reflection of London prices compared to Scotland. Everything`s cheaper here, except petrol! Again perhaps someone with local knowledge could advise? There are also a few oriental channels available on Hotbird at 13E - Thai TV. and Sun channel from Korea (sometimes encrypted). Also I think a couple of Chinese and Japanese. Good Luck Ckrys1 [/QUOTE]
