Haha I'll be going to Germany in a week or two and I'll also be staying a night in Luxembourg so I will report on the TV in the various hotels here in these threads Any CNBC in the hotel in Croatia? Is the internet free?
Whilst you're in Luxembourg, you should take a trip to SES Astra! You might even manage to get in and get to watch a bit of CNBC while you're there...

Now that's one hell of a dish farm!

I liked the scaffold platform erected at the side of what looks like residential buildings on-site just to house all the receiving dishes!

Don't have Google Earth installed on my computer, I'll have to look for a Mac version (if there is one).

Or you could just have a search on http://maps.google.com
I've been trying myself, but can only seem to find random fields and stuff.

Love the link to the pics, Radio Ruderham!!

Thanks. Just had another look and found it!

It's pretty impressive. I aim for my garden to resemble something similar in the not too distant future...

'Motors TV UK' has now changed transponders, moving from 11.307 V to 11.527 V.
So that's 11307V cleared out, wonder now what's going to happen to this transponder? Maybe Eutelsat want power loading reduced on EB1 so have decided not to renew the rental with the relevant uplink provider?

Sangat (channel 847) is currently showing a live feed from a car driving around Birmingham looking for any trouble.

Keeps switching between Live pictures and recorded pictures which are also marked as live.
