satellite TV???

[loony888]

g,day all,
does anyone here use or know about setting up an independent dish for viewing channels not normally available in australia? i'm interested in the american speed channels (of course!! ) as well as the ice hockey channels among others. i currently pay through the nose with f0x tel and i'm less than impressed with the cost of repeats and ads, add to that the HD is creaming the good shows, speedway has gone to HD only already!! and i'm seriously looking for an alternative!!
thanks in advance.

Thought about doing it myself for a while but it's gone on the backburner.
Pizza oven has taken priority. (no pun intended)

I'd recommend going down the 'internet tv' route - setting up and ADSL2 connection is cheap as chips, & internet tv is very much the future.
