G'day Baz

foxtel will not install unless the van is an onsite unit. Fixed addresses only. The way around this is to get a relative or friend who is already on satellite to request a second box install. Then you pay the rello or mate for the second box monthly charge and take the box with you on the road.

Using your VAST dish with a dual output LNB and two cables you can have both VAST and Fox off the same dish.

Does that help you at all?

I was told to get 'Foxtel Go' on my poota but have also been told by others that you can only have it if you have Foxtel at home. I would love to have the sport channels so I can watch Baseball and my Atlanta Braves. Oh well. Might look into joining their web page for viewing on game days. I can listen but that's not the same, no way.

I will ring Foxtel one day though and check with them.

 G'day young Doug,

Mate if you have a rello or a mate who has Foxtel, they could give you an account number and a password so you could use Foxtel Go. An account holder can have up to 5 devices registered on one account and it is at no cost to them. It will use up a chunk of your data allowance though.

does that help mate?
