freesat on kd65xe9305

 

Hi,I have a motorised satellite dish with a twin lnb connected to a recever in 1 room and the other cable going into another room for the other tv. I know that the tv does not control the dish which is fine but not sure how to setup. the tv has a main and sub satellite connector, which one do i connect to? . im assuming that whatever satellite the dish is pointing to is the one that it will tune to, for instance, if its on hotbird will tune to that, if i move the dish with my other motorised recever to a different satellite i can tune to the stations on that, is that the case

Yes; and use Main if making only one connection.

 

But please be aware it is not Freesat; you just get the standard Now and Next from the satellite, not a proper Freesat EPG.

Great, thanks for your reply, will give it a go, shame its not the proper freesat as that is not mentioned anywhere

Exactly :frowning2:

 

But to paraphrase a well-known saying 'If it doesn't say Freesat on the tin, it hasn't got Freesat in the tin'
