To get ITV1 ITV1+1 All the ch 5's you need the following.
One Sky box preferrably the 240v Pace 2600 silver box or the 12v Pace Javelin box. A white sky card like the £20 freesat from sky one.
A dish of preferrably 60cm dia or larger with the LNB turned clockwise thro approx 10deg so the bottom is pointing to 7.30 like on a clock face
Then find Astra2 at 28deg east of south and on the Sky remote press Services,401,select in quick succession, arrow down once and change the default frequency from 11778 to 12129v 27500 fec2/3 then save. Back to services then 4 add channels and add at frequency 11973v 27500 fec 2/3 and you will see ITV1 central and ITV1+1 press yellow button to save. Then services, other channels and they will be in there.This also allows you to receive all the Ch5's.
To watch the F1 on BBC. All channels, Sky news, red button page 3001 brings up the sports streams where the F1 will ve transmitted on race day, Incidentally if you go back to the index then weather you can have the forecast for all major cities.
Sky boxes are very slow acting so its best to use a free to air box like the small lidl/maplin camping sat one to set up with their built in signal finder then just change over to the Sky box manually or use a co-ax splitter. To make a Sky box boot faster and find the channels faster.Its services, add channels then add searching on freq 12129. S4C and Sony news will show but no need to save as then the box will be displaying all the channels. If a message comes up "This is the wrong card for this set top box " just leave the sky box on ch5 and Sky will activate the card on air within hours.Finally your pin no is the last 4 digits on your Sky card
