What our customers are saying....


Dear Paul,

Thank you for coming last Monday at short notice to remove the crumbling Sky dish and install in its place the robust but elegant replacement.

Thank you also for getting us up and running with the Triax Digital Free-to-Air Satellite receiver, which we consider to be first class.

As you know, we did our best to tax your ingenuity and determination by slipping in last-minute demands and posing tricky technical problems, but you handled everything brilliantly. Furthermore, you and Mick proved to be informative, flexible and cheerful from start to finish.

It's rare indeed to receive such excellent service and we want you to know that we really appreciated it.

With renewed thanks,

LM - Whiteness



Dear Paul,

Thank you so much for all your help in opening up the world of Free-To-Air Satellite Telly.

With all the obstructions I had, trees, chimneys, etc., I didn’t think it would be possible, but you & Mick arrived and deliberated with all the accoutrements for Satellite Divination, no problems!

The installed system was all done as agreed, time, cost etc, and with a laid back attitude, which is the mark of true professional people who know what they’re doing, not a current trend in this day & age.

I would thoroughly recommend IsleSat to anyone looking to increase their Telly Experience!

Thanks Again,

Kenny Watt - Lerwick


It's apparent islanders have quickly discovered IsleSat's alternative satellite TV service (from the usual Sky packages) is both refreshing and economical - especially so with the advent of FreeSat and free 'no subscription' HD (high-definition) television.

Located near Bigton in Shetland, IsleSat's owner Paul concluded, "The key to our continuing success is a friendly, efficient and professional satellite installation service. Islanders enjoy their TV viewing and when their rusty Sky dish needs replacing (and finally falls off the wall!) or their satellite system needs repairing - they don't want to wait weeks to have the problem fixed."

Apart from guaranteeing their work for a full year, IsleSat have gone a step further by guaranteeing their rust-free galvanised steel 'storm' satellite dishes for 10 years! "We're totally confident in our products and that's why we offer this unique guarantee", says Paul.

FreeSat or 'Free-to-Air' Digital Satellite TV

It's easy to receive the current range of FreeSat or 'free-to-air' (FTA) channels on the 'so-called' Sky satellite without changing your current television set, or having to pay Sky to install a dish, etc., or subscribe to Sky, or use a Sky digi-box and without the need of a Sky* card! Our system is simple and inexpensive, and provides many additional features. For instance, with the correct size dish, our receivers can also be expanded to receive all free-to-air (FTA) transmissions from up to 35 satellites, thus providing maximum viewing opportunity without having to pay any subscription or monthly charges.

Dish Replacement and Satellite Installations

If you've got a rusty 'Sky' dish we'll replace it with a new galvanised steel satellite dish and galvanised wall bracket that won't rust and will last for years - if not decades. If you require a satellite receiver installation or want maximum 'free viewing' choice, we'll even install a multi or full motorised satellite system. In fact, we do the lot!

Fast Dish Realignment Service

As we all know, storm force winds and salt can play havoc with satellite dishes. Only a small shift - and you end up with a blank screen, or it's rusted out and finally falls off the wall! Although dishes should be inspected at least once a year by their owners, if your dish needs attention we provide a fast Dish realignment Service. During the realignment we will automatically inspect your dish to ensure its fastened correctly, bolts tightened or replaced and hardware/coax inspected and replaced as necessary.

Satellite Servicing & Repairs

As mentioned above, dishes should be inspected at least once a year by their owners. But if you're not a DIY enthusiast - we'll do the job for you! During our Satellite Servicing we will thoroughly inspect your dish, ensure its fastened correctly, bolts tightened or replaced and hardware/coax replaced as necessary. We will also inspect your receiver to ensure optimum performance and make sure you're receiving all the latest available channels.

Motorised & Multi Satellite Installations

Most people don't seem to realise that Sky (and the 'so-called' Sky satellite) is just a very small part of the satellite spectrum available to viewers in most parts of Europe. In fact, Sky is transmitted from five satellites, Eurobird 28.5°E & Astra 28.2°E. It's because these satellites are so close together they can be picked-up on a single fixed dish. No doubt the same one you paid Sky to install. But there's an exciting world of viewing available from up to 35 additional satellites for a one-off price (including installation) that costs far less than paying the current annual subscription for Sky's 'six-mix' package!

78cm wall-mounted motorised installation, including digital receiver & hardware, etc - £450
88cm dish ground-mounted motorised installation, including digital receiver , etc - £525

Multi-Sat fixed dish installations, including digital receiver & hardware, etc, start from £299 depending on how many LNB's are required (maximum 4).

Satellite Equipment Sales & Accessories

We offer a hand-picked range of satellite dishes, Technomate & Triax digital and HD receivers and accessories. We no longer stock the standard Sky 60cm mesh dishes that only last a few years before they rust. However, we offer sturdy galvanised steel dishes and solid galvanised mounting brackets that are designed to withstand severe weather conditions and will last for many long years. If you're looking for a new satellite receiver, free-to-air (FTA) or a FreeSat HD receiver, or simply need a length of satellite coaxial cable, an F-connect or a new single or quad LNB or you may even wish to install your own satellite dish and receiver - we stock and supply it all.

FREE on-line & telephone help/tech advice

Whilst many satellite viewers prefer a call-out to either install, service or repair their satellite equipment, some folks are no doubt quite capable of installing and maintaining their own equipment. However, in such cases it often occurs that technical help and assistance is required. IsleSat is delighted to offer FREE on-line & telephone help/technical advice evenings only (please!) from 8.00pm to 9.00pm, 7 days a week - that is, providing we're not out on calls! Otherwise you can contact us on-line by clicking here, and we'll reply to you as soon as humanly possible. We are also planning to launch a Forum in the near future that will cover a multitude of topics and discussions.

Get ready for the digital switch-over in 2010 !

In 2010 all analogue TV transmissions in the Northern Isles will cease. In order to watch television after 2010 you'll NEED either a terrestrial freeview receiver or a satellite dish and a digital satellite receiver. However, the choice of 'free' stations you'll be able to view with a terrestrial digi-box will be somewhat limited (and sometimes less when the micro-link goes down!), as compared with the vast number of uninterrupted channels available (even now) 'Free to Air' from a correct sized satellite dish. Although terrestrial 'freeview' is subscription free, current satellite 'Free to Air' channels can be easily received without any monthly subscription. More importantly, it's not necessary to be contracted to Sky or FreeSat or engage them to install a satellite dish or a receiver. This is why IsleSat offers a 'third' option that can ultimately provide many more choices for the avid viewer.
