Yes JonC is in the footprint.

Technically I am not in the footprint but still manage to pickup Thaicom5 KU in Taiwan.

Thanks for Jonc posting this info though. Sports in HD is certainly going to help.

Another thing Idon't understand is that you say you can watch it free but when I go to the lyngsat website, it shows it being on IRD2??

Thaicom5 KU in Melbourne with a 90cm dish..... nah... don't even consider it.

Sometimes encrypted cahnnels are shown FTA for awhile.

Well 1080i HDTV is encryption in itself by default, as unless you have an HDTV stb you are not going to see it and even with a good dbv-s pci card it looks poor, but on any dbv-s2 pci card or box it is a ripper.

Look at ( by the way Bangkok Autoscan 1 is me) and it show free to view.

EDIT: it is also showing History HD and Discovery HD
