links to other web sites

Web site addresses do change. so if you find any broken links, please let me know so I can fix them.

Official web sites
	The Arabsat web site carries much information about the Arabsat operations.
	The Astra web site is very interesting, and has lots of technical details for every satellite in the Astra fleet. There are some fascinating pictures of the satellite launches on the site.
	The Eurasiasat web site. Lots of good stuff on the web site, pictures, screensavers and audio files!
	Eutelsat also has a lot of information on it, and includes the usual satellite details, lots of pictures of satellite launches and deserves a good look round.
	The Sirius Satellite Systems web site.
	The Turksat site. Quite a bit is in Turkish, but there is some English on it.
Satellite & frequency information
Earth View	Ever wondered what the view of the Earth would be like from one of the broadcast satellites? Find out on this web site! Choose your satellite, then click on the "View Satellite" button.
FlySat	A Turkish site with nice clearly laid out tables and information. In English and Turkish.
Lyngsat	An excellent web site, which is updated daily. It has just about every analogue and digital frequency you will ever need. The index page isnt too inspiring, but persever, since the site really is excellent once you get past the front page.
	Stefan's site carries an archive of transponder changes. You can sign up for a regular email newsletter from the site.

Satellite related Links
Chris Vowles Satellite Web Site	Chris has kindly contributed some of the screen grab pictures for the AnalogueSat site. This is his own web site.
DigitalSat UK	My second site, similar to AnalogueSat, but concentrating on free digital services.
	Really useful for satellite news (although mainly digital), and a great set of discussion forums. You will find me on the discussion forums using the handle "Analoguesat". Hundreds of contributors from complete beginners, to keen amateurs, to programme channel executives. Check out the "Satellite" and "Satellite Technical" forums for all sorts of advice.
Rewind Virtual Museum	Info about vintage sat kit - including analogue receivers with dials!!
Sam Radfords satellite site	Mainly looking at Sky Digital issues, but some useful info on the site.
SatCure	Martin Pickering has a massive site with all sorts of interesting stuff hidden away on it. He also sell all sorts of satellite bits & pieces, & spares. Use my form for a small discount on your purchases from Satcure.
Sat Gold	"Memories of Astra & BSB satellite days" :-)
Sat TV	Martin Johnson's site offers a lot of different satellite tv related resources.
Sky Analogue 1989-2001	Contributor to this site Chris Wathen has put together a small web site with a detailed look at the phased closures of the Sky Analogue service. Has now been updated to include the final shutdown details.
Vinyl Gems	Chris Bent's web site with satellite reception info, and a nice section on vinyl records.

There are a few satellite and broadcast related newsgroups. You will find me posting in:

There are others, but these seem to be the main ones of interest to analogue satellite tv fans.

A few non satellite links, but you might find them interesting or useful.
Book Crossing	Like books? Help make the entire world a library!
Campaign for Real Ale	Stop drinking fizzy lager and try something with taste. Join CAMRA and help save traditional beers and pubs.
Drive Archive	An good idea. List the registration plates of the cards you have owned, and help build up a detailed database of whats happened to them. Only 12,700 cars currently listed as of November 2003, but the numbers are increasing slowly. Anyone know what happened to my much loved scruffy old red VW Golf - BEC 332W last seen in the Stirling area around 1994???
Friends Reunited	Ever wondered what happened to your old school friends? Find out here.
Sustrans	The sustainable transport charity. They work on practical projects to encourage people to walk, cycle and use public transport in order to reduce motor traffic and its adverse effects.
Walsall FC	The official web site of my beloved Walsall FC.
