    What's Your satellite set up??

    Can members post here what equipment they are using, box, dish type & size , lnb type & location roughly in Europe (ie North Yorks)

    & what sats & channels they can receive (including scrambled channels)

    It would be good to hear from members on here regarding satellite reception etc
