Dishes on holiday

[Analoguesat]

Now due to the hills and high rise tenemant blocks many many buildings have veritable forests of aerials on the roof. This is one particularly horribly location I spotted - note the carefully installed downleads all neatly bundled together and clipped in place............

Sadly no matter how hard I looked I couldnt see any satellite dishes in the Vatican at least none were visible from the publicly accessible ground level areas - I didnt go inside the Basilic or up the dome due to the lengthy queues....


There will be one or two more pics when I sort the photos out in the next few days

Ive just returned from a very nice break in the beautiful city of Rome. Heres some pics I took of the skyline

Hope you had a nice trip.
Can always tell when you go away as the "latest news from 28E" and many other threads go quiet.

Been said before but once again Thank you:-worship

Yes it is a bit of a giveaway

Rome is lovely but by eck its expensive

The Colisseum and the other Roman ruins surpassed hopes and are fabulous.

The traffic is insane though

Yesterday I've been told that the german channels (ZDF, The RTLs, ARD Das Erste, ......) The Italian ones (Mediasts, RAIs, and so on) are going to disapear from the Hotbird. Bye, bye. If you wanna watch them you've to pay for them. True or wrong that's what we have for now. That's what the world is running for "The Money". As we all know money is the power, seems true sometimes.

That was the news from Arbi Press.

Mediaset (inc. RAI etc.) are going to focus on the Tivù Platform, which is staying on Hotbird but does require a Subscription Free Viewing Card (See separate Forum). As the population of Tivù equipped homes increases, FTA versions of these Channels will probably disappear.

One satellite dish INSIDE the stadium and another one on a sat-truck outside the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban, South Africa during the first ever football match in the new world cup stadium.

(please dont say I have a good job as it lashed it down all day and Im still soaking!)

 

[satelliteman]

Cracking pics

 

[Analoguesat]

Fantastic Matt - I love the way the dish in the first pic is pin sharp and the players are out of focus

You will have to take more pics of dishes around football grounds for us

 

[Lazarus]

Absolutely!

That first one is so good you should send it to the BBC to remind them what HD is all about .....

 

[mattsnapper]

I demand a new thread !! Dishes whilst on travels with work - I stay at home for my holidays!

South Africa Premier Soccer League - Ajax Cape Town v SuperSport United @ Bolands Stadium

 

[Lazarus]

Well you sneaked them in anyway!
