Thank you.

I have yet to see on any of the links provided by the supporters of your view that
Freeview as opposed to Freesat; can be received from Astra2b.

It is not on that platform Freeview is a Terrestial transmission.

You know, coming from Earth not space. ....come in Major Tom.....

I have two satellite dishs; one which is portable, which I use with my caravan ; and one fixed at home.
I also have two digital aerials, again caravan and home.

Can you explain to me why I cannot receive Freeview from Astra 2b via either dish, but can from both aerials????

I know the answer but I'm not sure you are willing to listen.

The Astra site also shows a picture of your "dish".

As I said, repeatedly, it was the Astra satellite that I thought it was, and the call made today confirmed it. Thankfully.

Feel free to check with a professional dish installer.

I'm not one, I just use it.

No it didn't.

Again, read through the thread and you'll see more on it, and others.

Contact a Satellite DISH tech like I did before.

The evidence is overwhelming that Freeview can only be received via an aerial

If Freeview can be received via satellite, why in hells teeth do Freeview themselves say it can't.????

Freeview say lots of things that aren't actually so. But in this case it is so.
