SITE MAP - SITE INDEX 

What is at this web site? Hi, There are more than 200 information files and 3 books at this web site and it is still growing! It occurs to me that, simply by browsing through the SatCure web site, you are going to miss a LOT of the information unless you have hours and hours to spend here. So here is a list of the files.

Simply click on any file name shown below in alphabetical order. Note that the Sky Digibox files have been transferred to my other web site. The copies that remain here for the search engine listings* are no longer kept up to date. (* I seldom delete a file. Once it's registered with the search engines I would be crazy to allow you to click on the link and get "Error 404 file not found" wouldn't I ? Mind you, judging from the number of times it happens to me, there must be a lot of crazy people out there! Anyway, I leave old files and add a redirection to take visitors to the replacement page. I hope you agree that this is the friendly thing to do.) Exception: all references to Amateur Radio have been removed PLEASE report any errors to me. It's such a massive site that I do lose track of links, although I have VSE software to check it. It simply takes so much time. afflinks.htm Links to SatCure affiliates web sites! acu5152.htm Nokia ACU5152 Antenna Control Unit (Positioner) advice.htm What to do if your receiver will not work? aegir.htm The Aegir/Dixi/Lenco/Oritron Jupiter D2Mac decoder FAQ alternator.htm How an alternator works and historical development amskits.htm Notes about kits for Amstrad SRD5xx and SRX3xx receivers amstrad_kits.htm Notes about other Amstrad kits analog.htm Contents page switchoff.htm UK Analogue TV switch-off timetable 2005 antologia.htm A beautiful Spanish love song by Shakira and my translation. elstree_murder.htm the murder of Mr Weare in 1823 email.htm Send me an e-mail astra1d.htm How to get those analogue Astra channels (1996) ard200.htm Cambridge ARD200, BT-SVS200, JVC TU-AD1000 receiver FAQ article1.htm (deleted) article2.htm Syndicated article (changes periodically) article3.htm Syndicated article (changes periodically) astra19.htm A list of "Other Channels" for the Sky Digibox bbd900.htm Infra-red sensor kit and upgrade for this Philips D2Mac decoder befound.htm Got your own web site?
