Freeesat in France
Hi. I have bought a Grade A Foxsat HDR 500 to take to my place in France next week. I assume I will be able to access the freesat service by inputting my UK postcode? I have already set the dish up using my UK sky dish without any problems and my French dish already points at 28.2e.
BTW can anyone tell me how to easily view the signal strength/quality meter while looking at a particular channel. Many thanks

Yes - you will be able to access the channels you received via the Sky EPG - no need for any more setup. You will not however normally get access to the IP services (On demand).

No, if you press 'Menu' and then choose 'Diagnostics' you will see a splash screen with the signal strength and quality for the channel you are currently tuned to as a bar graph but also showing the percentages. Not sure just how accurate they are but they are a good guide.

Thank you. Is this the only way to see it? This is quite small and does not give % readings. Also very hard to see from up a ladder!
