My neighbours recently bought a free to view box from Kipa & called Ufuk to install the dish, around 400tl in total. They have a good number of English language channels & no monthly subsciption.

In April 2009 the satellite has been repositioned to 16° East as Eurobird 16. Orbital slot at 7° West has been replaced with the new Hot Bird 10, known as Atlantic Bird 4A:D:D:D: :) ;)

Nilesat is the name of the satellite package (basically it is the middle east version of SKY).

We got our system from the satellite shop next to the 4 Seasons in Ovacik. He came and fitted it straight away.
If you're not in Ovacik any satellite shop will be able to sort you out, the whole package cost 230TL (so you know if you're being ripped off)
