Pay tv or free to air ?
Permanent or mobile ?

As far as i know the Optus B3 sat footprint that feeds Foxtel & Austar only realy work well in the southern states & up the east coast & weekends the higher you go.

The signal strength has been upgraded recently so im not sure whats happening now.

Intrested if others have any idea too.

Alot of the mines use sat tv systems and they work well, they feed the signal through all the living 1/4`s. I experinced it recently and it worked well was a great picture although it did go off one night due to bad weather apparently.

WHY LEAVE HOME..

JUST THROW SOME DIRT IN THE LIVING ROOM AND HAVE A BBQ EVERY NIGHT .

You will save a lot of money in fuel.

My Parents have an Abrolga Sat Tv system. The decoder box is the same as what Foxtel use, and you can actually put your Pay TV sim card in it, and get Foxtel/Austar..

It will pick up TV just about anywhere in Aus, and Pay TV most places.

Its really easy to set up, with coordinates given to you.

They aren't cheap, and the Aluminium Box is large, but if thats what your after, the inconvience would be worthwhile.
