Three good reasons why you should choose a self-installation package:
  • Cost
With our packages starting at just £158.00 - and that includes the receiver, dish and, just as importantly, all the sundry items such as cable, fixings, connectors etc - you will make considerable savings of several hundred pounds by doing the job yourself, rather than by getting a 'professional' to do the job for you.
  • Understanding your system
By taking the time to install the system yourself, you will gain an excellent understanding of how your system works. This is invaluable in the event that your system develops a fault - you will be able to fault-find with confidence - saving you more money on unnecessary call outs.
  • Satisfaction

It's more fun to do it yourself and there's a sense of satisfaction to be gained when everything is set up and working. At the same time, it's not a difficult job, and we are always on hand to provide customer support where required.

How hard is it to install?
 
Installing your own satellite system is perfectly feasible if you are technically minded and reasonably competent at DIY. The most difficult part - aligning the dish - requires patience but can be done using the receiver's built-in signal meter combined with the satellite finder that is included in the package.
 
What channels can I receive?
 
This package is based around the high definition Freesat receiver, and will enable you to receive all free standard and high definition satellite channels. This includes all digital BBC channels (including BBC1, 2, 3 & 4, BBC HD, BBC One HD, Children's BBC and CBeebies), ITV channels (including ITV1 HD, 2, 3 & 4), as well as Channel 4 HD & Five and many digital satellite radio stations. Other popular channels that are available include E4, More 4, Film 4, CNN and the children's channels POP and Children's ITV. 
 
How does the recording work?
 
There is a hard drive built into this receiver and this makes recording a channel very easy to do. Simply select a programme from the on-screen guide and press 'record' and the recording will take place automatically. You will also be able to pause a programme and resume watching it where you left off, record one programme while watching another, record two programmes simultaneously and automatically record a whole series of programmes. The hard drive has a 500GB capacity - which allows you to store up to approximately 250 hours of recorded programmes.
 
Included in the package are the following:
Freesat Grundig thumbnail with borderFreesat+ HD satellite receiver & PVR (Humax, Grundig or Manhattan depending on stock). If you have a preference, please contact us.
