Hi Steve,

I'm not an expert, but it's a universal lnb, so a good chance that it would work with sky decoded. 

Either way, we managed to get one from our local Lidl - at less than £70, we felt we should give it a whirl.  I have visions of spending too much time trying to get it to work.  OH (who did the shopping) reported that people were buying 3 and 4 at a time, so I expect to see them up on e-Bay shortly.  Staff at the shop couldn't understand why people were buying them and thought it was some pre-World Cup rush!

Regards,

John

Yes its got ITV 1  tynetees meridion london grampian etc but not Granada as I can see, I will have another look tonight. BTW it may be worth investing in one of these if you have the system

,

allthough it does have a satellite finder built in via a tone which gets higher, if you're outside the van you probably won't hear it.

Just back from the southern Vendee (Longeville Sur Mer) and I can confirm that the dish works there.

I was very surprised as the Astra 2D footprint suggests a 60cm dish is required.

Also, there is no need for a sat finder. The supplied compass will give you the general direction and a little bit of patience will get you a picture.
