BBC Arabic on a Sky box.

Post by G4EWJ » Mon Nov 26, 2018 4:25 pm

Probably of little practical use, but it is possible to receive BBC Arabic from Badr4 at 26E on a Sky box (but probably not a Sky dish) by using the Add Channels and Other Channels functions, if they still exist on more modern boxes.

Hi Brian,

Like your dish at the club!

My contribution from East Midlands.

1m offset on stand at ground level, just clears the hedge...

Will put up a "no loitering" sign on the garden path between dish and sky.

Do you notice a drop in signal on wash days? :D
