Hi I have just bought a new tv and wondered if it is possible to pickup Spanish tv via my 1.4 dish? The new tv has direct sat hook up with list of frequency options!
Any help would be much appreciated

http://en.satexpat.com/tv/spain/ (http://en.satexpat.com/tv/spain/) - you'll pick up the free-to-air if your dish points towards one of these satellites, or you can get a motor to enable your dish to move automatically to the correct satellite. But you'll get far more free-to-air
Spanish programmes on terrestrial TV, using a normal terrestrial aerial.
Thank you.
How do I find the lnb number for these channels ?
As Chisme posted,all it needs is 24 euro ariel, point it the right way and will get about 34-35 channels,many channels can have the language changed by using your remote,put sub titles on the news etc and it helps to broaden your spanish .

I'm not sure what you mean by the "lnb number": do you mean the transponder number? If you align your dish to one of the satellites mentioned, you could do an automatic search and load all the available channels from that satellite, or give the transponder details and simply load the channels beamed from that transponder. The transponder settings are given in the "satexpat" link, or https://www.lyngsat.com/Astra-1KR-1L-1M-1N.html (https://www.lyngsat.com/Astra-1KR-1L-1M-1N.html), or https://www.lyngsat.com/Hispasat-30W-4-30W-5.html (https://www.lyngsat.com/Hispasat-30W-4-30W-5.html).
Thanks chrisme, now just need to get my head around it!
If you were watching Sky via an Openbox, (now useless as Sky have changed their encryption), move your dish to 19,2 astra. If you have a European "gift" you will receive all the Movistar channels in HD, movies, football, motogp, F1 etc, plus Bien Sports.
Gift?
Much easier with an ariel !
