Afraid not fully. Some of the channels broadcast on the Sky Freesat 
platform are encoded and there are no CAMs available for it. Only Sky boxes.

You will get BBC channels and I think ITV but not Channel 4. 
http://www.lyngsat.com/ has some good information on what's broadcast where.

http://www.lyngsat.com/28east.html is what you want to be looking at.
