I got one of these last year. You can set it up with the clamp or inside the carry case.
The satellite finder is a simple compass - there may still be a few references to this on the web.
Anyway, be these early. Last year I think the store had a few in when I went, but the first 6 people, all in front of me, wanted 1. So I`d be prepared to be there at 9am - lunchtime and you`ll probably have missed it.
Also, the dish does fit inside the case, so be prepared to either live in the south, where you can get buy, or travel south. Of course if you have a proper satellite dish and wish to replace a Sky box, it`ll do that fine.
And you get a 3 year gtee for piece of mind.

Bear in mind this receiver won`t get you ITV/C4 as these are "free-to-view" and require a Sky card / receiver.

Hi Could you tell me what programmes are available(signal permitting obviously) Is it just stuff like on freeview or lots more (all free to air stuff on digital satallite). This would be ideal for us as we can`t have a permanent dish.
Cheers

I had one of those from Lidl. The receiver stopped working after a couple of weeks.
It was a hassle to send it back to Comag in Germany!
I wouldn`t recommend it
