Yes Friends 4u Abroad enjoyed their first night at Jays Karaoke too, good fun!

We will be there again next Thursday for sure!

We are with Superbeam and havent had any problems.

We've also had Torresat for a couple of years now with the signal originally coming from Quesada......last year we experienced problems with lost channels and the programmes breaking up, but after a slight modification, free of charge, from our original installer, we now get our signal from Crevillente......perfecto! easy solution without further expense.

We are with Torresat also and have had the same problems - losing channels, picture breaking up - they have been out twice now to try and resolve the problem and for a few days it is fine then things start going wrong again. I was thinking of looking at the free to air channels that they have in the UK as I understand that you can get them here with a big enough dish. We have a large solarium so figured it would go there. Am loathe to use a company without a recommendation as there seem to be so many here doing it but are these just people who jumped on the bandwagon when TelMicro disappeared or are they trained installers? Would be interested to know if anyone has had free to air installed and if so who they used and a rough cost?

My friend has just had some sort of Freesat installed by a guy called Ian of Totally Digital - he used to work for Doctor Digital but is now on his own. He was very professional and my friend was happy with the price that he paid. Not sure of his phone number at the moment but will try and get it and post it on here.

I have had Simulsat for years never had a problem if you need contact details send me e-mail [email protected]

Hi Ian, It would be good if you would add your details to our Services page....

Hi Real Radio, Perhaps you would ask Simulsat to add their details too....

Hello Chris,
We have lived here for several years and I am speaking from experience and not from anyone trying to sell you a system.
There are several options available to expats and that depends on many things, firstly and the most important is affordability and second is what you exactly want in terms of channels.
One of the cheapest methods is to have a large dish where(if part of a community)everbody feeds off, which should be a one off cost and no monthly subs. This will give you most British channels and some movies, however no live sport, ie premiership football etc. The other option is you can have a rebroadcaster ie Torresat to install a small dish for you and you will receive eurosport and some live games in addition to all the other channels. This will cost you 21 euros pm. There are other options but they will obviously cost you more. Please feel free to ask any other points you are not sure about.

Hello John,
Thank you for an depth analysis on this subject. Where we are renting at the moment it is mainly Spanish residents and other nationalities,so I don´t believe they have a large dish on the roof solarium. But your open information has given me a better idea of what we can do. I will be talking to the President in my broken Spanish and see what he says.
Will let you know how I get on. Having said that the Torresat system could be a possibility. Regards Chris
