    It may have helped if you had at least done a little research, as were all aware theres is plenty of good info available, your guide to me mearly pointed out the basics, which were you require a dish, receiver and an installer to fix it all up for you.
    You can't realy make a more basic post than that, as for the guide, I do not seem to have found it.

      Is there a guide as to what programmes I can expect to receive if I fit a dish.

        That will depend upon the dish size you intend to install, and your current location, as the footprint of satellites can, and do, vary quite dramatically.

        Here's a good place to begin, this is where you can find the relevant info on the satellites, and also the corresponding channel details as well:


        And here's a link for checking any satellites footprint:

                You have still set it incorrectly.

                On the initial page you have the following:

                It should read:

                    As a result of this thread, I shall probably always associate your pseudonym with perseverance.
