hello
going to move over, and like to purchase before here in Germany a satelite system.
well, we have Astra here, but I wonder if our LNBs and antennas accept other satelites around Oz.
Could you tell what is avaible in Australia ?
Maybe you have an idea which would be a good small removable system for a small slideon camper

For satalite phone there are 2 one not worth a pinch of sh-t.
The other the iridium system through telestra.
All the best

If you want 'main stream' Pay TV, Foxtel is one of the main players. They will want to install their own equipment.

re: Foxtel.
Foxtel will most likely refuse to install a dish on anything mobile as their systems are designed for houses etc. I have installed on 'permanant' vans, but these were definately permanant. Foxtels data base is address based. The usual way round is to get it installed at
home, then get another mobile dish arrangement and just take the decoder from
home when you travel. Be aware that you will not get a service call if your address is
melbourne and you happen to be in a van park at allice springs. All you will get is a 'sorry we missed you' card at your house. Hope this helps.

prices seem acceptable, some electronics are quite expensive compare to here.
There is a USB stick receiver I am interested in. Have no
feedback for compatibility, yet.
