Sat, 01 Dec 2007 18:27:47 GMT
Hi, just bought a freesat kit - Which incidentally didn't come with any
card... is this normal?
Anyway, can anyone recommend a Satellite finder that is preferably self
powered and will indicate which satellite it is pointed at, and help me
align a dish for digital freesat? Looking to spend up to ¡ê150.00.

Digisender + Sky/Sky+ Codes ?
Fri, 30 Nov 2007 22:52:56 -0000
Hi,
My next door neighbour has got a new digisender which seems to blatt out my
AEI one on all channels. He has a standard sky install - same as me.
If I were to get Sky+ then I assume the remote codes wouldn't be the same,
so I wouldn't get him changing my sky box to Playboy etc ! (without my PIN
!! ;- ...

The Battle Of Badr
The Muslims who had gone to Medinah,
had left all their belongings behind in Mecca and these had been
taken
by their enemies. Thus, when the Muslims heard that Abu Sufyan, one
of
the leaders of Quraysh, was on his way back to Mecca from Syria with
a
large caravan of goods, they decided tha ...

The bird's moved the telly
Thu, 29 Nov 2007 22:47:47 +0000
The bird's moved the telly and won't put it back, insists it's staying
put.
No biggie, except the SKY aerial lead isn't long enough. Again no
biggie methought, I'll Google the bugger and read up and buy the right
type of cable and F connectors and extend it and Bob's your mother's
brother. Turns out he isn't. ...

Coax...which bit used for what?
Thu, 29 Nov 2007 17:21:09 GMT
EASY question for the techno bods....
Coaxial cable....outer plastic sheath, then usually copper shield, then foam
dielectric (or five cell) and then inner core. In a satellite installation
I've been told that the copper outer and the copper inner are used to send
voltage to switch the LNB. OK, if that's th ...

Changing channels automatically?
Thu, 29 Nov 2007 17:12:47 -0000
I am sure this must have been asked before but please be patient with me;
Is there a gismo/accessory that I can buy that will change the channels on
my satellite box while I am out so that I can record programmes from
different channels. I have a satellite receiver box where you cannot
programme it to change ...

Sky Talk Call Barring?
Wed, 28 Nov 2007 21:05:25 -0000
I am tempted by various offers, to upgrade from Sky+ to HD , but all the
packages involve switching to Sky Talk for phone calls.
At the moment I have a BT line but prefix nearly all of my calls with 1899
which gives a great saving. I usually dial 0845 calls through BT direct
which gives me just enough calls t ...

THIS IS MOHAMMED 18

spider had woven its web right across the entrance to the cave and a
dove was nesting with her mate nearby. As the Meccans stood in front
of the cave, with only the spider's web separating them from the
fugitives, Abu Bakr began to fear for their safety. He whispered to
the Prophet (pbuh), they are very close. If ...
