Where can I get the none Freesat channels settings?
I want to set up some none Freesat channels (i,e Luxe HD) but don't know the settings for them. Can someone give me that site where all the settings are available please?
Is it SatKing or something? I need the URL and also which channels can I add to my Grundig DVR? Thanks GG |

I normally Google "Flysat" which was recommended to me by someone on here (grahamlthompson if memory serves correctly)!
That site always seems to have the right up to date info for what I want in Non-Freesat mode (Astra1+Astra2 channels). |

GG ![]() I love how this part of the forum is the best place for any help/information but some of the other forums end up having massive rows and shoutyness. Like two different worlds. |

Graham what does 28.5E and 28.2E mean? You keep forgetting you are talking to a Granny! LOL
GG (PS I've just noticed from Graham's links that I can already get broadcasts from both Astra (28.2E) and Eurobird (28.5E) satellites. How come, given I have an ordinary (ex-)Sky dish?) |

Granny you may be, but I don't even understand your original question! How do you gain access to these non-FreeSat channels in the first place? Does it mean you have a dish rotator to turn the dish to face other satellites? Seems very advanced stuff to me!

Because they must both be accessable from a Sky set up dish. I have been able to get both and mine was installed for Freesat.

(PS I've just noticed from Graham's links that I can already get broadcasts from both Astra (28.2E) and Eurobird (28.5E) satellites. How come, given I have an ordinary (ex-)Sky dish?) One satellite is called Eurobird 1 and is owned by Eutelsat orbits roughly 22000 mls above the equator at longitude 28.5deg E. The others owned by SES-Astra currently consist of 3 satellites (normally 4 but one is temporarily relocated) at 28.2E. Astra 2A, 2B and 2D. All the UK PSB transmissions on the freesat epg are transmitted on the UK focussed Astra 2D narrow beam. The freesat epg (together with ITV 1 HD) is on a 28.5 transponder |

So how do you access these non-FreeSat channels? Is it manual tune and then you put in the channel details and then you can get a new channel? And what sort of channels are available, anything worthwhile, or is it just +1 variations on what we already have?
