A VU+ Duo would do the trick providing it was setup correctly

Footy on line works well you get most games plus other sport, as far as CSI,just get basic pack for FX; Hallmark, via Virgin if you are cabled up
Hope this helps !

there is a lot of stuff open on 1w if you had a motorised dish, but to get the best out of it you would need to cs which cant be talked about on here so you will have to google it to get some answers

wtf.. its awful compared to the quality of watching it on a proper channel on a proper TV..

However the Virgin idea is very sensible..

I'm a VM+HD subscriber.. I use this for my basic UK television and i use a Dreambox to watch European satellite for the football etc.. You can get a clone DM800 pretty cheap

I am new to satellite and have had a Sky+HD for past 3 months. I like my footy and would like to watch the Saturday premier league matches. What type of set up would I need. Are any of matches transmitted in HD. Any rough idea of cost. Is there a link to a site where I could read up about what Sat systems can do. Cheers.
