[mythtvnz] Re Aligning a Sky dish for Freeview (Jonathan Guthrie)

[Jonathan Guthrie]

Hiya

I'm after higher quality, and a 2nd source so I can watch while  
recording another channel, so it seemed a natural alternative  
source... however if I got me another 150 card I might very well be  
able to tune to the unencrypted channels. It also would possibly be  
less problematic than the blaster having to change channels on the  
set top box... I have a bendigo man bluetacked in front of the set  
top box holding the blaster in the right position, with a piece of  
paper shielding ambient light. Nice.

So yeah I might very well contact you about those frequencies!

Thanks
