Well Telefonitika, you're lucky to have the reception! We tried to point it at 13 degr ES & no chance. What is the diameter of your dish? i just do't want to pay over 200£ for sth I could do myself.

Hey telefonitika,
I bought cyfrowy polsat receiver and I have got 60cm zone 2 disk, but I cannot get any channels. How did u point the dish at hotbird? i tried it all day and no luck. I am so disappointed!

Dear all,
Thanks for all your suggestions, but I am still searching for the reply.
Terra, thanx for the tip, but I will just repeat myself to say I am not keen on watching the TV on internet (I signed out from my broadband and I do not miss it).

Blossom, tiscali has got a wide channel selection (eg. Asian ones), but nothing Polish. Besides if they had some I wouldn't fancy, because subscription prices are like five times higher than paying for the same channels from Poland.

Truebrit, personally I do not like watching Dr Who, but everybody has got different taste. When they are some good films, they usually start like 11 pm. Who wants to stay that long to wait for it?

spiritus, your reply is irrelevant.

Based on my experience - in Uk you start from scratch & climb on the ladder. There are some kicks on the way, but it is like a good school of survival. The funny thing is that in Poland you can be Ms magister and in UK you mean absolutely nothing.

Asma, I think we share the same dilemma - I also have got Sky+ dish installed ( from previous owner), but I have no idea if it can detect any Polish channels if pointed at hotbird sattelite & connected to Polsat receiver box (with card).Also its cheaper to pay for the same channels from Poland than through companies based in England.

thanks for reminding me about the obvious - THE OFF BUTTON - I didn't know that!!!
I don't need any reminders about physical activity, radio or books - in my spare time I do it anyway , but in the evening time I prefer to chill out in front of TV after hard working day - thats why I miss Polish channels because there is always something cool to watch. I do not want internet reception.

Thanks Polanglik - I live in Stevenage and I looked into yellow pages, but there were no companies to advise me about installation in the area. I am thinking about buying Polsat card in Poland, but the question is if I could use it in here, if so - then would the card work with the ordinary receiver (bought in UK) or I need to buy the Polsat receiver. Also I already have got the Sky dish installed so would it work with the receiver?

Has anybody got any experience in that?
Cheers,
Malwa
