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.

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.

Del's always at hand with a bucket of cold water! There are other things on TV apart from Le Mans. You can always walk to the track to watch the race, armed with a set tuned to Radio Le Mans.
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.

That set from Maplins is selling for £60 now,

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.

Ah...yes.  I'd forgotten about 22 prima donnas running around a field kicking the sh1t out of a leather bag.
