Anyone know if the Irish channels are on any of the satellites, perhaps some version of freesat. I know most of them are on Sky, but only if a subscription is paid. I read somewhere they plan to add them to freeview once the switchover is complete.
that you can get it on freesat. On the serious side are you both using a Freesat box and have you entered a NI postcode. The freesat box I use in the house does not have ITV+1 on the freesat menu listing nor does it have ITVHD when I have put in a NI postcode, I can however get other channels which dont appear on the menu system when I switch the box over to "free to air" including sky news. On the FTA which is built into the tv in the MH I can get the missing channels. When I moved over from Sky to freesat I knew I would have to make a choice over UTV or ITV and firstly I put in an English postcode and didnt get UTV but got the ITV+1 and ITVHD. Now swmbo wants to watch Lesser Spotted Ulster so have put in the local postcode and I now have UTV but no +1 or HD version.
