If you notice that the Dutch, German, French etc have their dishes pointed in a different direct to ours, which point to 28.2°, it's because the satellites which carry their channels have a pan European coverage and are at different locations in space. Ours, Sky, is primarily intended to only cover the Western Isles,

Why would you want to watch telly in Dutch, German or French, there is a lot more crap on their TV 😱
As said they are probably turning up to 19.5 or Hotbird 13 for smut TV.
You could tune into one of the ones on the list below 😊

We’ve been in Spain 3 weeks with plenty of data and a firestick. Neither have been powered up.
Different people do different things, internet radio on the other hand has been on flat out
