    Talking

    Just visited the ABC2 site and on the programming for 25th may they are showing the pacific 6 Nations cup at 8.00pm so I guess that is the comp that Australia A is playing in. It's great news, wish they would show the tests as well. I wonder who the commentators are.

    Sorry Burgs, I'm probably in late to a long running problem, but what is the satellite system sending you?

    Just the basic remote cards worth Andy, WA rural commercial and ABC/SBS for remote NT-SA-Qld & NSW.
    I haven't bothered getting the hot card but I don't think that opens up ABC2 though, just the other commercials around Rural Australia like Impaja and C7?

    Point the dish to Optus D1 and you'll get ABC2. Mind you, you'll lose the Aurora service, being on a different satellite. But look at all the ABCs and SBSs you get. Imparja too, it seems.
