Maxbar - "In an extraordinary ruling, lawmakers in Strasbourg have warned that banning dishes on listed buildings, social housing and even private homes could breach the right to freedom of expression", The Equality and Human Rights Commission Britain's discrimination watchdog, has now published new guidance warning that Landlords could be at risk of being sued if they try to stop their tenants putting up a satellite dish.
Housing minister Grant Shapps said that this effectively drives a horse and cart through planning laws in the UK.
A 90cm dish which "was" the maximum size allowed will bring in most pan European Satellite transmissions in the UK.

Mazbar - Just to add - There may be still a problem for pubs in copyright issues with flashing banners etc. However we could now see European Club matches and it is technically feasible to add an English Audio track as currently with Aljazeera and Tring.etc
Pubs apart thuruling effectively gives the green light legally to home users to take European TV services and for access cards to be purchased from retail trade outlets here legitimately.

Ian- Strasbourg ruling overtakes this and in Sweden two tenants took their Government to court on this one in a dispute over a dish.
The Strasbourg ruling found that under article 10 of the European Union Human Rights Legislation seeing the Swedish Government in breach of that legislation in failing in it's obligations to protect the tenants rights.

Ian - KB Aerials Sheffield - On a personal level a little common sense injection needed to Human Rights Legislation on such issues when it comes to volume, size, and being as unobtrusive as possible?

Les Nicol: Brian, The plus with this impending HDR seems to the ability to move between channels "Freesat" and FTA in a favourites list without having to switch modes.
