"Well, I imagine you're all wondering about the new satellite, Astra 2F which is due to take over from an existing satellite that brings us BBC and all the other domestic UK channels?
It's now in place at 28 degrees east but, so far, hasn't been brought into full operation so it's no change yet. One particular HD transponder has been fired up and it will bring 2 regional variations of BBCOne to Freesat/Sky/FTA. From what I've measured here, there is no discernable difference so ... if this particular transponder is typical ... we can sleep easy in our beds in the Limousin and all points north.
Anybody in the south of France waiting to buy a satellite system and not sure what size dish to buy ... I would wait a bit longer."

Val say, we are not that far from the Limousin, perhaps we will be safe.
