I am currently down in Andalucia and as of 3am this morning the spot for the BBC channels has been reduced so no signals get here now. Is everyone still getting a good signal in France, SKY and FreeSat?

Thanks

From what I have read in Spain today even the Costa Blanca is OK so nothing should have changed in France.

That is a relief. I pay my license fee in the UK, but geographical restrictions don't make sense any more in a digital world. You should be able to pay for a service and have a reasonable expectation that you can see the content wherever you are.

The owner has just installed this bit of kit http://www.ebay.com/itm/IPTV-Set-Top-Box-MAG-250-B...

It does not use a VPN and does not work with SKY but if you use FreeSat and can't just re-tune, then this may be be OK for you. Picture quality is good.
