Hi All,

Yeah you'd probably need quite a big dish to receive this in Italy
alright... if it even works at all.

It's worth a try though if all else fails.

Also Niall here's a quote from their website:
"The RTÉ services on SAORSAT are exactly the same as those on SAORVIEW. The
full list of TV channels is: RTÉ One, RTÉ Two HD,TG4, RTÉ News Now, RTÉjr,
and RTÉ One+1."

So it's exactly the same at the moment but I supposed if and when other
third party broadcasters come on board on the Soarview system then yes this
may not necessarily be reflected on Saorsat.

Regards,
Steve
