  1. You can get it if you know how to line the dish up to the satellite.


  2. You can, but generally, you need a dish of around 1.5 metres.

  3. Long time not being in Spain, but in other countries you can get Sky TV signal (or a partial programming listing) via Cablevision if available.

  4. Buy a Sky box in england registered to an english address and take it to Spain.

    It works anywhere.

  5. Yes you can we get it in Losboliches  Fuengirola and in Gibraltar. I got my dish and box in the UK and registered it at my home there. and pay by direct debit. I took it out to Spain and installed it my self took about an hour. All you do is put the dish up connect the cable and then turn it on click on services then system setup then on signal test then you move the dish around till you get the strongest signal strength and quality all done. It comes up on your TV screen. Same Electrical voltage as the UK.

  6. you'll want a 1m 20 cm dish, if you just want the free to air channels you can use any old digital satellite receiver or as said you need to register a box with a uk address (many local installers can do this for you for), sky tv itself resides on astra at 28.2 degrees east of south and elevation (on mine anyway) was around 37 degrees. it can be done yourself, took me a couple of hours originally (find astra 1 at 19.2 degrees first, as it has a very strong signal, then work slowly across) or alternatively there are tons of local satellite installers who will find the signal for around 50 euros or do a complete install from 400 euros upwards
