The headline TV or not TV on satellite. A man with a second house at Deauville had a Humax Freesat box installed professionally and had no problem with radio and TV initially. Recently he has lost certain TV stations and all of the BBC radio stations. Freesat says the original satellite was replaced with a narrower beam to cover the UK more intensely possibly relating to licensing problems within Europe. Now that the analogue TV's are obsolete we face very short term updating of digital services and there appears to have been no publicity on the subject. He asks 'Have other expats had the same problem ? ' He continues 'So much for common standards'
Personally we have had no problems as yet but await the changing of the satellite beam again in the next few days to see if it has any effect on us.
