Is it possible to tune French FTA channel on a skydigibox?

[Samantha]

Is it possible to tune French FTA channel on a skydigibox, if yes how do you do it, I have already tuned the English FTA but I don't know how to get the French one.

Thank in advance

Re: French FTA

They're on a different satellite from the Astra 2D one that carries most of the UK channels (see this list), so you'll need either a second dish, or a specially-adapted one that can accommodate multiple LNBs pointing in slightly different directions, or a motorised assembly that can be rotated between the different angles.

The satellite forum on Boards.ie has lots of useful advice, particularly in the 'stickies' written by their moderator watty.

It's important to know that the French FTA channels cannot be tuned on $ky Digibox even if you point the disk at the right satellite.

A FTA receiver is required as it can tune a wider range of frequencies than a Digibox.

I get Arte, France3-5 and LCP.

TF1 is not FTA, M6 Suisse is available somewhere.
