Hi,

This is a new enquiry about getting Satellite set up for our new property above Las Pocicas which is about 3 kilometers outside and a further 4k off on a rambler in a very mountainous region. We now have very reliable source, the neighbours that we need satellite as nothing else will work at our location.

So, can anyone know how and who best to contact to achieve this please.

Thank you in advance.

Mal

You may not know that on satellite TV ALL BBC channels have changed to HD. Not even the 2.4m dish will not work. 

Best bet is ti call Gary on 620 198 162 or visit his website Mycinema.com (his contact number is correct but cannot remember the full name of his company). 

We had satellite TV for years. Now no use. You will see that on Marketplace there are Freesat boxes being sold for next to nothing and satellite dishes for nothing just to get rid of them. 

Sorry to be the bearer of not good news but Gary will sort you out. 

Regards …..

The other thing is to try a Firestick but if you live in the back of beyond you may not get a strong enough internet signal. Firestick is certainly the cheapest ….

Try Z air. They are based in Elche/Elx.

Excellent service. We are in Salinas and they set up internet & TV very quickly and at a very good price.
