    They only have those dishes in the kit, with a Twin LNB (the one in the picture is the Single LNB I bought to sell with the dish) and the 85's seperate without LNB...

    My System: Sky+HD Astra+Hotbird FTA on 60 cm dish
    Was just in Lidl in Warrington and they only had the 80cm Dish left and a pile of LNBs with a few sat finders.
    Was in Lidl Irlam on Monday they had everything in stock apart from the complete set with the twin LNB.
    Bought myself a Dish and a few LNBs for playing around with some day.

    My System: Pace 2200 Sky digibox with ftv card, Comag SL65 FTA sat receiver, 40cm Sky minidish, Setpal terrestrial receiver (for free uk tv only!).
    Yep, went to my closest Lidl yesterday (not saying which, sorry!), they had no kits, one receiver, but loads of satfinders and lnbs and 80cm dishes.

    Got a satfinder (£5, inc a short cable, as Lidl say "that's cheap"!). Since I have to put my dish on the kitchen sink, to watch, that means using a finder each time, but now I'll just leave the Lidl one in circuit and keep my Digisat in the toolbox, much less bother ....

    This thread gets more sublime as it goes along (meant in the friendy-ist of ways).

    Not to divulge the whereabouts of a local - somewhere in the Midlands Lidly Horror Markt - - - to other members

    Me thinks the next time I say anything thing here - I better keep my cards close to my chest.

    Have Fun, Moo.

    If anyone wants the 80cm dish and LNBs, my local store (Nelson, Lancashire) still has them, aswell as the wall brackets and a couple of meters...

    I was in my local Lidl last week (buying some clamp-on lamps and some other bits and pieces) and noticed they STILL have about 10+ 80cm dishes left, so if you want a cheap dish (£14.99) to play with, get to Nelson (Lancashire) and pick one up!!!

    I didn't see any brackets, meters, LNBs or anything else, just the stack of dishes on a pallet, the top one opened (I guess people were inspecting the contents), might be a few other bits and bobs you might like too...

    How far away are you? Lidl in Nelson's next to the dead end railway that goes through Blackburn & Accrington (with me at the end in Colne!!!), it'd probably be a lot easier just hopping on the train (especially as I'm packing up my house so it's in a complete mess!!!)...

    It's on Rigby Street, Postcode BB97AA, literally right next to the railway line...

    I'm tempted to buy myself a couple of them and eBaying them...

    There were about 8 dishes only, no LNBs or wall mounts, when I was in today, some decent looking toolkits there though...

    I thought you must have been, I went again cos my mum wanted a couple of the cat feeding bowls, and I noticed the dish stack had gone down...

    So that's 3 good ones, 2 opened and pulled out and all that left...

    I thought they'd gone too, but they were sat at the end of the drinks and stuff...

    They were amongst all of the special offers yesterday so I guess they moved them for some reason...

    Well, it's just the 2 "raped" (as Yeshi put it) dishes left, I have a feeling they'll be there for a while....

    Any news on when the next lot of Sat stuff's coming in?
