Is it possible to receive Sky TV in the USA?

Hi There:

Is it possible to purchase equipment that will show Sky TV in the USA. I miss the football (Soccer) and am fed up of watching golf with commercials every couple of minutes.

I am a newbie here.

Thanks,

I come from the UK and I miss BSKYB very much, but on the good side over here you get The Simpson's for free! There is not too much in the way of British TV and sports over here, I have a FTA motorised system and a few months ago I found a feed that was being beamed bake to the "Mother land" : ) It was F1 car racing it lasted for about 5 hours and was great as it had all the UK adverts and everything, PG Tips, Curly Wurly....... well you get the idea. Other than that I have seen a few BBC and Sky news feeds, I am sure there will be a lot more in the next few months (election) I hear that Celtic and rangers : ) have now got there own TV channels I am sure it will only be a matter of time until they are available over here. If you like soccer there is quite a bit on FTA satellite, GolTV is 24/7 footy and there are all sorts of Mexican south American games on, also there is soccer from the middle east all Free To Air, I am sure there will be a lot more UK TV now that Rupert owns DirecTV, cheerio!

I can't help with football, but you if want news, BBC World is available 24/7 on the two Canadian DBS services.
