    Your the 2nd person to mention getting SBS on freeview.

    Stop teasing and give us the goss, whats the satelitte and frequency details, can you pick it up on a standard SKY dish with a single LNB or do you need to go large?

    Don't make me come down there.

    I dont think my bunny ears will be able to pick it up either way, im banking on there being live streaming over the internet as per all the live sporting events i watch. I will post up some links closer to the time.

    You my friend are a fucking legend.

    SBS 1, 2, 3, 4 all tuned in in 20 seconds, though 1, 3 & 4 all seem to be the same broadcast. Changing the Horizontal setting to vertical in the search seemed to be the key setting for me to pick them up.

    I am on satellite.

    On mine I had to go into Manual search. I changed the Pol (Polarity?) setting from horizontal to vertical, set the frequency at 12646 and clicked search and it came up. It's on the same satellite as the NZ channels so nothing to change for that.
