I wanted to ask you all that have Sat tv what type of content can i expect.
Is it possible to get HD picture.
Who would be a good person / or company in sydney to be looking at to purchase what i need and then have it installed.

Hiya global88 thanks for the replie.
I looket at getting selec Tv but they dont offer a package like say optus or foxtel were you say pay an extra $15 a month to have an extra set top box to a diffrent tv .
With Selec Tv if you want to have 2 tv outlets you need to open 2 acounts and it would still coast us here $102 a month ruffly then i would need to add the coast of the Equipment.
With foxtel we pay more a month but we get a lot more in like you get more movie stations / comedy/ Sci/Fic and Sports you wont get on Selec Tv.
Yep agree with your statement about channel selection.
$29.95 per month x2 is less than $60 a month and no contracts. Your not locked.
At my house ive split the av output so my one sat unit works on 2 tv's.
Having said that i have to watch the same program on both tv's.
Looks like its Foxtel for you....
hiya global88 Well $29.95 x 2 for Great TV - 22 channelsOriginally Posted by global88
$24.95 for Greek - 5 channels
$5.95 x 2 Discovery Pack - 4 channels for a month
Then i would need to add on coasts of install equiment.
Umm, you need the Greek?
How about, SelecTV $36 (incl. Great TV & Discovery Pack).
A dish bearing a 2 or 3-way LNB holder.
So, one of the LNB's would be set to say Optus D2 for ERT, the free to air Greek TV station, and a whole host of other FTA's such as Press TV, Russia Today. You'd do an FTA 'Network Search' from the 12706 detail:-
The other LNB set to Intelsat 8(ku) for Select TV.

Hiya Keepleft well i need to set it up for 2 diffrent TVs ones for my dad who likes to watch live news a few other curent affair type shows on antena he also likes National Geographic Channel /Nat Geo Adventure so there alone i need Great TV - 22 channels for $29.95 then i need Greek - 5 channels for $24.95 .
Dad also likes to watch Discovery - Animal Planet / Discovery - Science so i would need to add + Discovery Pack - 4 channels for $5.95 a month .
Then the 2nd TV i would like all but the greek and with select TV you cant pay an extra cost to have a 2nd outlet like you do with optus/foxtel i need to open a new acount so costs start to get up there.
For my dad id be happy to set up selecTV and for the 2nd TV if i could get movies and a few doocumentry stations for free id be more than happy but im starting to relise it dont work that way.
With the FTA you can get is there a range of movie station and content or is it limited.
Sorry in advance i am first to admit im the newbie of newbies.
Re above - Press TV and Russia Today are great for news and documentaries, the latter in particular to RT. Rarely any fta movies, you will find a few on foreign stations on C band et al.
Some would go for one card, say Great TV+Discovery Pack = $36/pm, plus in your case, the Greek package = $25 for say a total of $61/month.
You could use a so called 'card splitter', a device which shares the sub card between decoders simultaneously. But, new sub cards are revision 5.3 designed to prevent such nasty evil doomsday activities, so I don't know if that works here or with older hard wired units!
Of course, you could pay the $61/pm for your dad, and pick up a second decoder for yourself;
You'd be up for $96/month.
If your dad can live with just ERT (FTA) and say a few other various FTA's on D2 then great! You could then grab that decoder above for yourself for Selects $36/pm max english pack! Ways and means to profile your installation, but how much you spend is up to your of course. Me, hey - I throw lots at my personal install, a few hundred - I think I'm worth it! :-) Show him the ERT website.
