Do you plan to use these in india or UK? the only FTA sat feed in india is from DD called DD direct AFAIK. Does anyone know any other Free sat feeds that can be picked up in india?
Youd still need a sat dish to receive the signals. Mobile antennas will be very expensive from what i understand and i havent seen anyone reference to them in india except for an interview of Dilip Chhabria talks of being able to offer sat tv on the move and he remarked that this was expensive. I can understand that these devices exist but havent seen them around. A search took me to mostly chinese trading sites offering USB sat receivers. Check this out http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/prod...novasusb2.html never heard anything wrong about their tv tuners and i dont expect this to disappoint either but have never used one.
