I've been reviewing my TV aerial requirements to get the best digital reception and I noticed the blurb on free-sat TV. As I see it I can get a satellite dish from Amazon for about £25, probably a satellite finder/signal strength meter for £9 and a freesat box from Argos for £50 which will give me 80 channels. The box will probably come down in the next few months after volume sales. And I can say goodbye to poor reception. Have I got this right? Has anyone else tried this?

Will dishes work OK if placed in the loft? Martin -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
