Thanks for that inbed79. Thanks for clearing up that you cant get american channels in the UK.
So from that list and generally speaking how many sats can you get from a motorised dish?
Which locations have the best sats and is it possible to get english on most channels?
Is Technomate a good motorised dish and sat box?

Could anyone please reply to my last post. Would love more advice from people who have a motorised setup as I am in two minds of the setup I want for HD channels?
