    Tv in the U.K and we thought we had it rough!

    No problem with reading my posts, she tolerates my hobby, sometimes happy when I found a good station, sometimes with a sour face when I scan transponders just to test a changed setting of the motor or receiver. This imitating of the pelvis up-and-down gave us much fun, we ponder if those...

    Which satellite has the most FTA channels in the wold?

    Just finished a channel search for "FTA" using a preset transponder list of Hotbird 13 East, the result is 460 TV and 267 radio stations.

Kuwait 2 (the English one) is not so popular since the similar stations from Dubai have a better schedule, even the German soccer league ist broadcast there. Is Kuwait TV shown in real...

    I can assure you, the British FTA channels are of good quality. Here in Germany they are popular, we watch them without paying British TV tax. We pay German TV tax, around USD 20 a month per household, and maybe British citizens watch German TV as well..what I doubt. Most Germans are not used...
