28.2°E - Astra 2F

Is it able to install and watch channels on Astra 2F 28.2°E from Lebanon?

You need a monster of a dish to do it---3 meters are least for a few channels, and that's in good weather. Probably 5 meters to get decent reception. I have already asked about this. It is prohibitively expensive to try It is a very narrowly focused beam over the UK and Western Europe.

The real question is, what's not available?

Hispasat gets you a ton of sports channels and movies etc etc all owned by one company that refuses to change their 10 year old encryption methods.

No no absolutely not. No spanish.
Portuguese tho haha.

But movies and some sports channels are english. But who cares when it comes to sports. Just put an audio stream (from the language you like) on your laptop or rapsberry pi and plug it to the stereo. Sync it with the tv and mute the tv audio. Have fun watching.

i'll pm you a link, Check it out, it shows you all breakable channels on each sat. So you can search for discovery for example and you can see on which sats it's breakable.
