Hi all,

I am living on a compound with its own cable feed, but I am hoping to find a way to get broadcasts in Arabic. Getting a satellite is out of the question, so I need alternatives. Are there over-the-air broadcasts available in Riyadh? Does anyone have experience picking them up with a modern LCD TV? Are there digital broadcasts? Do DTT converter boxes exist and/or are they needed? I am woefully out of the loop with TV technology!

Thanks very much!

Sorry for the confusion, but I cannot have a satellite dish installed. I need to know whether, for example, MBC 1 can be picked up without a satellite dish by a new TV.

What about TV over internet?
Do you have a good connection?

I don't think satellite channels can be picked up without a satellite dish, easily. It need a complicated set up.
