Satellite TV

[josephR]

Advice please. I’m thinking of getting satellite dish for my Moho portable or fixed? What are the best ones on market? Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance

We have a Maxview on our van. Very good but I don’t think I’d have another due to now being able to stream stuff more easily and economically than before. We stream more than use sat now.

Taken ours off the van, no need for it in the UK and use the Status 550, good wifi can also be used.

We have a Maxview portable. We can move it on the pitch to avoid trees or other obstructions.

We've not bothered since they changed the reception foot print to only northern France.
A good Freeview TV aerial is all we use these days

what channels did you want to watch and in which country?

Have you considered a Firestick instead?

I have a Maxview 85cm dish and can get British TV reception in Spain using an Icecrypt decoder.

Satellite systems are good when you have no trees and no 4g phone signal / wifi.
Streaming is good when you have trees and a 4g good phone signal / wifi.
I wouldn't be inclined to spend too much on an oyster system, it's seems like dated technology now.

be aware many U.K. mobile phone providers although they offer unlimited data packages only allow 25gb per month when roaming abroad under the fair usage policy.
If your watching TV 2-3 hours a night it won’t last long

You won’t need any fitting for the wifi . You can do it all yourself . It’s all plug and play stuff . Although in your situation satellite may still be worth looking at but I am not up to speed on the coverage into Spain etc .
