I live in North East Czech, and have a 80cm on the chimney stack, and an internal in the TV (Philips PFL7008K) I can receive some UK (Pick, Challange etc) But would like to have more choice. It looks like the '' channels are available to me as the & strength of say 'Dave' is good.
Can you tell me what type of digi box I will need to buy to get these channels, as they show 'Program Scrambled' at the moment with my internal receiver.
Any suggestions would be great.

Thanking you in advance
John

Tanks for your responses, we have been told a bigger would be needed for BBC/ITV, maybe something I'll look into on a later date. I did et the ITV for a couple of days when they first installed the 80cm dish, but after a couple of days they went. For now I think I'll try a '' box, as Mike P suggested. I'm looking at the Manhattan Plaza HD-S2. Seems to have good reviews and for around 50GBP on Amazon..

Thanks again.

John

P.S Not that it matters, but I'm N/W Czech not N/E as I stated in my first post.

Mike, I'm not really up on sat systems but I looked at one of the 'Program Scrambled' 329 Dave, and the tv displays the below:

: 11993 MHz / Horizontal / 27500 kS/s
Strength: 55
Signal : 100 (BER:0.0 X 1E-6)

Is this telling me the signal is there, but I just need the appropriate to view it?
(Most other FTV channels show similar figures)

Thanks for your as I'm getting a bit bored of the few channels I can watch....!

Thank you all for your advice, it looks like all the that are there but scrambled are from , I was thinking Dave was a FTV. Oh well looks like I'll have to get a bigger and a Sky to stand a chance of watching UK channels. Or wait till they go to internet..

Thanks again.
