Freesat

[cauliflower69]

As far as i am aware sky dont sell freesat its a mixed effort from the bbc and itv.

But i hate the way sky say channels like sky news are included in there news package for instance when its free stuff like that pi**es me off.

Hope you get it sorted it m8

ONdigital, is that not for ordinary freeview mate, like you get through your normal roof aerial rather than a sattelite dish ??
I can remember years ago i had one of those, but as i say, its for the roof aerial and not sat dish, maybe iam wrong though.

hey there,im currently using the method provided to tune the other free astra channels,but i could not find the std mode.i just went into manual tune and followed the rest of method,seems to be working o.k

See below my question. This one posted in error

[khenryashley]

go to the menu, change "STB MODE" to non-freesat, press ok to save. then go to setup and select "Manual Tune"
" transponder"- all
"network search"-enable
"scrambled type" - all
"channel type" - all

then just press ok on "search"
and thats all

By doing this Will it pick up Sly sports news and sly news

[cauliflower69]

why would you want to find sky sports ? You can not unlock it with a freesat system anyway.

[khenryashley]

Sky news and sky sports news are on freeview but not on freesat.
If the freesat box is unlocked can you get these 2 channels.
Hope this makes it clearer

Yeah m8 no problems all fta on 28.2 will work

[chappers]

I want to switch from Sly to Freesat+, seems a good option for those who don't wish to make Murdoch even richer. Conniving, sly scum that he is.

299 is the list price for the foxsat hd

You can get Sky news in non freesat mode but not Sky sports news.

Can you still record the non-freesat channels with the foxsat hd or does that only work with the freesat channels?

[.: JaCkPoT :.]

you can record all the channels which you can view with your receiver ie not encrypted
