Space X Starlink installation service

If you’d like your Starlink dish mounted on the roof then we have all the mounting options to ensure that your dish is securely installed & receiving the optimal signal from all the satellites. We will also neatly and discreetly run the connection cable to wherever you would like to install your modem.

You can order the Starlink kit directly from www.starlink.com, as soon as it arrives then we’ll come to your property, give you a cost and often proceed directly with the installation which typically takes around 2 hours. If you’d like to network your house with a mesh system, then we also specialise in cabled & wireless solutions to get high speed connectivity to every corner.

AFN

If you have an AFN decoder, I will be happy to install it for you. Please understand that I cannot supply you with an AFN decoder. They are a restricted item that can only be bought or rented by properly authorized personnel.

Installation takes on average about 2+ hours depending on how many TV’s need to be connected and where the dish needs to be installed.

Before starting you will be made aware of all the costs for the equipment and we will have discussed all your options in detail including the estimated work time. It is also no problem if you already have equipment; if it is suitable then I am happy to install it for you as well as re-aligning existing dishes to the appropriate satellite.

The work is always neat and professionally done as if I was doing it on my own house. If you are living in rented accommodation then I specialise in installing everything without any permanent structural alterations. If you are having problems explaining what you want to have installed to you landlord, I speak German and will be happy to explain everything to them. I am a German registered installer of satellites (you have to be by law) and all work carried out is insured, so there is generally no problem with the owners after I have assured them that their house is in safe hands.

Freesat

As the name suggests Freesat is genuinely free. It is also very good. Even with pay TV you would not want to be without the Freesat channels, but that is ok because you get it included with Sky. You get over 140 channels of TV and radio that include the likes of: BBC One HD, BBC HD, ITV 1 HD, Channel 4 HD, CBS Action, Drama & Reality. There are multiple movie, music, kids, news and entertainment channels making it the best value that money can’t buy. A full listing of the channels available can be found on the Freesat website: https://www.freesat.co.uk/channels

Another great feature of Freesat are the +1 channels. These are channels that twin exactly the same programmes, but are running an hour behind. So if you are channel surfing and come across something that you missed the start of, or you want to finish what you are currently watching, then with all the +1’s you have a great deal more flexibility.

Flexibility! It’s what we demand as a consumer these days; we want what we want when we want it. With a dedicated Freesat HD recorder you can: pause or rewind live TV, record a whole series in HD quality at the touch of a button, browse the on screen electronic programme guide 8 days in advance or even watch/record different channels at the same time thanks to the twin tuner.

All you need to enjoy Freesat is a Pal or multi-system TV, a digital receiver and a 60 to 85 cm satellite dish pointing towards Astra 2 at 28.2° east from South.
