if you've never used a satellite system before m8 i'd recommend going for this

is that fta?

will i be able to get that on the above ebay item/s?

or i might just subscribe to premeire which apparently has every premiershiip game and every champions league match live

No the games are not on FTA but you can patch the majority of the TM receiver and then you don't need any subscription.
What satellites are you facing at the minute?

?200 should be enough.
You need for exemple a TM1500C+ Super for ?90 + a Dish for about ?40, an LNB for ?30 some cable and that's it. If you have another ?50 you can buy youself a Diseqc motor but to start with, it's enough.
You can then point your dish to 19E and get the footy + movies but remember they are not FTA.
I don't know if i can say everything i want on this forum:-$.

as stated premiere is not FTA but is 'hacked' and has been for some time now,but is rumoured to be changing encytption soon,so could go off at any time.

i would personally invest in a motor as it gives you extra options like digitv on 1w for example which is currently 'hacked' and shows prem footy...........although not as much as premiere.

but if you want guaranteed footy then dont bother with a art sports card as this isn't licensed for the premiership anymore just the SPL and foreign they now show.the best card for the uk is the digitalab card which shows on average three 3pm premier kick offs(more than premiere) and also later lick offs aswell as sundays and midweek.

have a look at w*w.liveonsat.com for what matches are on what satellites m8.

hope this helps

supersport isn't hacked m8 so you'll need either a official card or join a c/s m8

i agree with mr legs above lol, but a technomate if your new to it as there by far the easiest to set up and easiest to keep going after you set up,


if you want all the footy you will needs a valid subbed card or as said join a c/s but if you want to go c/s route but a linux box and not a technomate (except the tm9100 which is linux).

to be honest i see all the footy i need with my technomate and the patch, not missed one i wanted to watch yet.
