Sky Digital, UK.

Anybody know when this will come to Nigeria or if its already available?

What i can say about that is that i think loveworld is moving to the satellite hosting Sky uk and that should be Eurobird 1 & Astra 2A/2B/2D at 28.2°E. what i don't know for now is the type of dish that will be use to point to this bird but i want to try with a 90cm since its right above w7 and its KU

It depends on your location u can get sky uk in naija. in thr northern part,1.8m is used. with 3m in lagos u can get it

Is it the same location as GTV and why is it that you will be needing 3m to get it in lagos area.

i am on that bird but am finding it difficult to get infinity as the frequency am using is not turning green so what frequency should be used and what other frequency can one use on this bird.

Sky lailai. Lagos 5/6metres whilst in north 3m. I tried with 3m in 2006 To no avail in lag.Ask someone else

I suspect they are the Free2View guys on Sirius4, same as sky Free2View or Freeview pay once watch free forever. http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/skyuk.html, for the free channels you need a sky card to watch same as Free2view on sirius

Dont argue what you dont know,becouse you tried in 2006 and couldnt get doesnt mean is not possible. I watched sky uk in the north with 1.8. Am also sure that with 3m you can get them in lagos. Is only some very few tps that moves in nigeria. For some reason I will not disclose them here. Take for example,I used 1.5m to get nile in the north,while with 2m I still got some nile tps in lagos.

Before now people argued that u cant get nile in lagos with 2m dish. But today even with 1.8m u can get nile in lagos. So instalation depends on the technical knowledge of the installer.

good work, badaru.

yes sky digital uk is possible.signal is low like 46% but it still show no cracking or freezing .

has anyone tried Astra 1h? its in the same 28degress with sky. Its a german package with plenty football

can any one help me install this in Abuja
and what do i need to do this installation ?

i am not sure if we can receive astra 1h in dis part of the country

^nope. the minimum dish size for sky is from 1.8m up to 5m where necessary. 1.8m is like x2 of dstv. u'll need a satellite receiver other than dstv decoder

Is this still possible? I am currently in my friend's house and he is watching dstv channels (HD) for free. He also told me with a big dish I can get sky channels for free.

I want to know how possible.

weird.

you should have asked him na.

you left the person who is your friend and who has something u want to know about live in front of you to come and be asking us who probably dont have any idea of what you are saying?

My friend doesn't have a big dish. He uses the 90cm plus a strong decoder to watch free dstv channels including HD. He just hinted it to me. One of the disadvantage is that he has to wait especially for the HD channels to come up and the channels can go off at any time.

He also directed me to nairaland for more info. I am really interested in the sky channels especially the HD channels

Hi. I am looking for an installer that can track Sky digital in Kaduna please.
contact me on asmuktar@gmail.com

I bought a sky Q decoder box with remote and working well as a tokunbo product.what do I need to get it connected to my tv.i don't have the power cable.
