I live in South Norfolk in the East of England and I’d like to get TDTSat (Spanish TV) in my house. I’m really unsure though as to what equipment I’ll need to receive it.
I currently have TNTSat at Astra 19.2E installed. I have a 45cm dish and it picks up all channels with excellent reception regardless of weather. This is one thing that confuses me because every website I looked at at the time told me I needed at least a 60cm dish to receive 19.2E so I’m a tad skeptical as to what dish I actually need to receive 30W. The consensus seems to be that a 60cm dish is necessary for the south of England but would it be doable on the standard 45cm Sky dish I have now or would I need to fork out for a 60cm dish?
I’m also unsure as to what box would work. I found a Televes TDTSat receiver on TVCorner for €395. Does anyone have experience with this box? Is it a good box to get for TDTSat? Is it the only box that’ll work? I also can’t see any reference to a viewing card so I take it that the box has one embedded into it? Again, I’m very new to all of this so I’m not 100% sure how it works. For reference, here is the link I’m looking at:
I’m sorry to ask so many questions but any advice would honestly be a massive help as I have almost no clue what I’m doing!
