I watch many German channels with and Astra dish. Many of them are HD ( you need an HD receiver ) and the contents is very good. With 3 dishes ( Turksat , Astra , Hotbird ) I receive about 4200 channels in total ( including radio and encrypted ones ).

Hi Marggie

No problem - it may be a refurb and it may be a Bush but at £40 you could deal with it if they wanted to take it off you at Dalaman (although I doubt very much they could be bothered to).

Another one if people fancy the idea discussed in this topic:

I bought one of those Cyclone boxes as recommended by Fran on Page 1 of this thread andI have to say it's an impressive bit of kit. It's about the size of a fag packet and you can get them with different capacities up to 32Gb but the best thing is that you can extend the internal capacity by connecting an external memory stick (32Gb from Maplins for £14.99). On a 32Gb stick you can get around 30 films or 60 TV episodes (depending on the individual file size obviously). Just connect it to the TV by the supplied HDMI cable and away you go. There are any number of "free to use" sites for downloading films - I use icefilms for TV and films and YouTube for downloading music vids. I'm taking it over with me on Sunday but no bubblewrap required - it will fit in my jacket pocket.  :D
