A few years ago I picked up Sjónvarpið purely by accident on my Sky Box with a 60cm dish aligned to pick up Astra 2D and Eurobird 28.5 E. I deleted the channels but I'd like to try and pick it up again. Does anyone know what the frequency is?

Thanks

There was an experiment to carry Icelandic TV on Astra a few years ago - not sure if it is still running. (Think the idea was to see how viable it was to receive Astra 2A - or B, or Eurobird - that far north)

Actually I'm pretty sure it was a four day thing for the Icelandic elections so the ex-pats could watch the coverage. After the election had ended the live re-broadcasting of the output ended, and was replaced by repeats of the localised version of Who Want's to Be A Millionaire.

I remember that the TV coverage didn't start till mid-Afternoon about 4pm but you could be right. I do remember seeing a little bit of some serious thing an election quite possibly and also a bit of Friends with Iceland subtitles.

Thanks for posting that link anyway Wink.
