To my classmates in the Spanish course and to all others who may be interested: Would you like to see Spanish TV?      
(And several hundred other TV channels in a variety of languages? This includes CNN International, BBC World, Sky News, and CNBC.)
It is free and legal with only a one-time expense of around 1000-1500 kr (about 120-200 Euro) to cover the cost of the receiving equipment.

If the answer is "yes," you need the following three things:
  1. A modern, digital satellite receiver ("Free to Air" type) - price: From around 40 Euro (in Germany) and from around 400 kr (about 55 Euro) in Denmark
  2. A satellite dish - price: Around 450 kr (60 Euro)
  3. A small reel of antenna cable. Price: Around 100 kr (about 10-15 Euro)
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions): Q: I already have a satellite dish for the Nordic satellite channels. Can I use my current equipment? A: No, you need a new satellite dish. The angle between the Nordic satellites and the ones you now will use is too big for being able to use the same dish. (I am not taking into consideration unusual cases such as a motor-driven dish or a special wide-angle dish). You may not be able to use your current satellite receiver; a modern digital receiver, which can receive "Free to Air" is required.
Q: Can I set it up myself? A: Yes, it requires only moderate handyman skills.
Q: Is it possible for everybody to take advantage of this opportunity? A: No, there is one requirement. You must be able to set up the satellite dish so there is a direct, undisturbed view of the satellite. (See explanation later).
Q: In my opinion, a big, ugly satellite dish will look awful at my house. Can I avoid this problem and still see TV via satellite? A: Yes, you can hide the dish on a pole in your garden, placed at ground level, or in a hollow. But there must be a direct view of the satellite.
