If you have no compass and the sun is not shining then the best thing is to go to the pub until the sun starts to shine!

We take our Sky plus boxa and card from home with an 80 cms Dish and folding tripod.  We can get pictures all over Europe no problem. 



So it is possible to get all sky channels in your caravan if your a sky subscriber?
Is it just a matter of ordering another box? (multiroom)
I have read that sky can not be viewed while in a touring caravan as the sky box has to be connected to a phone line.

I have read that sky can not be viewed while in a touring caravan as the sky box has to be connected to a phone line. Not true as such. As far as I know, after the initial contract has expired (usually 12 months), you do not need to have a phone connection - BUT - if/when Sky upgrade the programme guide and/or change your card, a phone connection is required for those...

I've taken my Sky box (and card) with me two or three times now, and it's worked fine!
