I am on the verge of dumping SKY and getting a Freesat box to replace.

Will i be able to use in BG when i move over next year?

Hoping that with the right satellite dish it might work.

It will but limited

Yes I think your right BGT but it will be limited as you quite rightly say.

Thanks for responses thus far

has anybody here tried it?

if so, how limited?

I have tried it but gave up in the end because it was extremely limited but location might make a difference.
