Title: Portable Satelite Post by: Nobby Diesel on May 22, 2006, 09:52:17 am No idea if it will work or not, but probably worth a go at this price.
Full portable satelite set up from Lidl - £70. I think we'll be taking one. http://www.lidl.co.uk/gb/home.nsf/pages/c.o.20060522.p.Portable_Satellite_Receiver Title: Re: Portable Satelite Post by: DelBoy on May 22, 2006, 07:42:12 pm Don't forget that LM will be transmitted by Motors TV - and this is not FTA or FTV. You'll need a Sky box and subscription to be able to see any of the race.

Yes, the box from Lidl will work in France. The race will be broadcast on Canal+ and CanalSat in France, both of which require subcription. You will be able to get the free stuff from all over Europe including BBB 1 and 2 and ITV on it.

we bought one last week and it picked up Canal+ as well even without a suscription??? I am planning on borrowing my mates Sky Box and DragonCam so that we can get MotorsTV aswell. RaceWorld is also on FTA which will broadcast highlights.
