We have the perfect solution to getting all your channels back and more!
Scores of British expats all across the European continent are up in arms due to recent changes in Astra’s transmission beam which has resulted in many favourite channels simply disappearing off their screens.
On 6th February, 2014 most free-to-air UK TV services were transferred to a new satellite, Astra 2E with many of Sky’s TV channels switching to new Astra 2F. This has proven catastrophic for viewers in southern Spain, Portugal and parts of eastern and southern Europe as these areas have lost almost all of the BBC, ITV, Four and Five variants, leaving just the subscription based Sky channels to choose from.
The reason for the loss is simply down to the newly switched satellites using a more powerful but narrower beam, meaning countries outside the target beam area no longer receive the signal clearly enough to watch these favourite channels.
Thankfully in this era of high speed internet, smart technology companies have been hard at work in developing solutions that no longer rely on receiving signals through traditional aerials or satellite dishes. Enter the era of IPTV…
