Satellite Dish + Digital Receiver + LNB + Cable + Mounting £79.99

Lidl were selling these a while ago but were out of stock quickly.
I found the exact same kit at Maplins for around the same price. I bought one at Lidl last year and I'm still using it today. It can receive Free to Air Analogue and Digital European channels. Easy to fit as well.

Will it pick up the kuwaiti TV? You can watch live premiership football if it does? Anyone know where i can get a dish capable of doing it from. I've been thinking of getting sky but can't justify a monthly subscription.

And before anybody asks..... NO, it does not get Sky

It will get the free to air channels such as BBC1,2, ITV1,2,3,4, but not C4 or C5 as they need a viewing card, and is not possible with this receiver.

You are much better off buying an old Sky Box on Ebay if you just want the free channels, as only Sky Boxes have a proper program guide.

yes i had one similar , the amount of channels was massive and confusing , and you needed to change possition of dish for each sattellites ouput (obviously) had to sell in the end as was just to much work , but ok if you know what you want to watch and how to do it , all the best andy

I' d forget these and get a second hand sky box instead, cheaper and easier to use as well.
As the above poster said you won't get c4 c5 or the programm guides.

If however you fancy additional channels to the sky package then get a proper satellite box from a satellitte dealer, one with a common interface that will allow Cam modules that will allow you to see programme packages in English from other european tv package providers with an appropiate paid satellite subscription. These are sometimes better value than the Uk based sky channels package.

The satellite market is more than just SKY.
