Could anyone tell me if I could use an old satalite box to recive TV programs other than freeview, and if so how/what do I do to get them. I have the box connected to the satalite dish

it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

Not sure I understand but as long as your dish is pointed at the right satellite (Astra 2) and the box is working, you should be able to pick up all free to air programmes. Of course you cannot receive any encoded programmes like the Sky ones unless you have a decoder and the appropriate card. We watch British TV in France using a very cheap little satellite box bought locally and can pick up hundreds of channels on it, including all the main ITV and BBC channels.
