Complete with a typical aerial designed for reception of terrestrial broadcasts. And not use of a satellite dish for Freeview.

Why do you insist on talking about a satellite dish for Freeview? crazy

I think there's probably a Yagi there as well, but there doesn't have to be...

Why?

Because the OP stated he uses a DISH pointed at Astra2B to receive Freeview.

And they will all use normal terrestrial antennas to receive Freeview. None of them use dishes pointed at a satellite to receive terrestrial transmissions.

Your first link doesn't even mention satellite... and you've completely missed the point.

I know he's not picking up Freeview from a satellite as well as you do, but it doesn't mean that it's impossible to pick it up via a dish. Unlikely I'll agree, but not impossible.

Follow the reply to my first link which is: http://forums.thinkbroadband.com/hardware/t/3871660-...

and the reply to that where the OP states:
In reply to a post by Guest_Again:
Communal Sat Dishes.- for freesat / freeview or sky - our individual choice[s].



The OP is the one insisting that a satellite dish pointed at Astra2B provides Freeview and refuses to accept he is wrong.

If you care to read it that way... I'm assuming that the OP is using the term colloquially and isn't being as pedantic as others.

Dish can be used colloquially but Astra2B confirms it is a sat dish and being used as such.

You know and I know that somewhere there is either: Yagi, Log Periodic, Folded Log Periodic, Log Periodic Dipole, ... which is used to receive terrestrial Freeview.
