This is just to let people know how I got UK TV in Norway.

I bought a Freesat box (Humax) in the UK and brought it over. I then purchased an 85CM dish from Biltema along with the LNB and cable. Used the internet to find which wall was best to mount the dish (correct direction) then set it all up, took a while to find the satellite as it's very easy to miss it. Also note that you can get strong signals from other sattelites but of course when you try to tune the channels in you don't find any. So now I have all the UK channels that are listed on the freesat website and many others when you scan for non freesat stations including Skynews. One thing to note I get a poor signal when snow settles on the LNB so advice making a shield.

google maxsat in Geilo, he sells shields for the LNB that are brilliant (I live in Geilo, so lots of snow).
