You can get C1 with a Sky dish, and if you've got one of the newer LNBs
they are using, it's just a case of configuring a tone switch, as that's
how they're switching between the horn pointed at 160E and the offset
one for 156E.=20

I have noticed Maori TV appears to be the only EIT source on B1 that has
decent catagory information. Neither TVNZ nor Sky appear to use standard
stuff :|
