am i on the wrong forum here or is this a hard question to answer

 

I'd say the reason this is not answered yet is because most the people on these forums are in the UK or Ireland.

What exactly do you want to do?
Bring the box back to the UK?
They are just rebroadcasting free to air satellite channels and charging you for a box and aerial.

if i bring the box back what sort of a satellitee will i need and can i pick up the channels here in ireland

they give mne a card

do i not need this card

i have to use them as the apaprtment block wont let us put up our own dishes

 

that box wont pick up anything in Ireland as far as I can make out, please post the model number of your box to confirm.
For FTA in Ireland you need a sat dish pointed at the astra2 satellite(sky) and any FTA reciever or a skybox without card will get you a good few channels

 

buy the on in lidl they were doing for FTA

 

but if get a satteliite and hitting there satteliite would i not pick up the channels i get in spain

cause they must be using something to beam it to me in spain

i get u the number serial

 

im in ireland

 

Firstly you will need to know what satellite you are pointing to in Spain and see if its possible to align a dish in Ireland to that satellite , because we are north of Spain this may be a problem or may just require a large dish at the correct position , there is a useful tool on this site that will give you the correct angles for your address

hi folks its a co ship cdvbc 5120 digital reciever

i think there are more channels on this esp spanish sports ones than whats on teh freeview just

anyone recommend a good sattelitte company to put up a dish and help me out

 

What you have is not sat , its mmds the spanish company are just rebroadcasting sat over an mmds network , a setup like this was recently closed down in the alicante area.You will not receive that service here . DVB C boxes can only receive cable signals

 

really so im wondering what there charging me the 20 eurpo for

so what exactly are they doing

there taking it illegally and how do i get it

is it something to do with there card

 

i believe an ex guardia civila is running it

what annoys me is the apartment complex will only let you use this company

 

any help

 

you cant use that box in Ireland, you can get the same channels for free with a dish
What help do you want?

 

yes can u recommmend were i can get this sat n box

does my tv have to b a special type

 

Powercity, maplins, Aldi or lidl

 

any FTA sat system will get you chans, thats why i said a basic one from aldi or lidl when they have them

 

need someone to put it up now lol
