Sorry, the digital Switchover

Guys, can RTE be received in the north via Satellite without sky ie Saorsat ??
Here’s our situation;
The folks got Sky in a few years ago because the analogue signal had got so bad.
After the digital switchover they got Steeles in Omagh to put up a new aerial and cancelled the sky.
They get all the channels on 2 TVs (One via a box, the other with tuner built in) but the interference from time to time is driving them mad.
This interference isn’t just on the Irish channels, but on the ITVs and maybe BBC too.
Steeles have been out a good few times changing stuff but its still happening. They said they’re having a nightmare with both the Tamlaght & Dromore roads in Omagh.
They called last week and suggested a new dish with satellite that will solve the problem at something like £240. Does anyone know if they could use the existing dish etc? I thought RTE wasn’t available free to air on Satellite in the north?
