What About British TV Viewing In Spain ?? The main satellite that transmits UK programmes is focused tightly on the UK and in The satellite also moves so as to power up its solar batteries and because of this some signals become weaker at various times of the day. The signal is also transmitted on 2 separate beams - Northern and Southern, the Northern beam being weaker than the Southern one. Therefore we require larger dishes to be installed in Spain than the little meshy ones used by Sky in the UK. Weather - it does rain in Spain and on those rainy cloudy days signal is affected ! This does not happen often, but you should be aware that UK TV in Spain at times is not perfect... If you want perfect British TV stay in England !!! Channel Transmissions - Some channels are occasionally moved to other satellites or beams and this can affect your station reception. You can loose or gain channels; this is entirely at the broadcasters discretion. The moving of satellites can some times affect viewers in the UK too.
Dish location can be critical, when buying a property don’t automatically assume you will be able to receive all the TV stations you want. If you are in a town house with the house facing the wrong way and houses either side shielding the satellite signal it may be impossible. We get calls from people out in the campo (country side !) saying "I'm not sure whether the signal will get here?". It's often better in larger open spaces, but beware of tall trees as they can be a nightmare. So location of property/ dish are very important factors when thinking of a satellite installation. It’s a good idea when purchasing a property and TV is important to you to have a site visit done before you buy to be sure TV is possible. What About Digi Boxes And Viewing Cards?
