I have a spare Gibertini multi lnb bracket, so plan is to use it with seen this 65cms dish on fleabay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gibertini-Satellite-Dish-65-L-65cm-L-series-Aluminum-Dish-Anthracite-/161142571445?pt=UK_ConEle_SatCableFreeview_RL&hash=item2584d881b5 Thanks everyone for valuable...

Ok, looking at plan B now. Say I installed a second 60 cms dish( which I believe is within UK building regulations law) first of all,would I be able to pick up 28east and 23 east on this dish from Bedforshire? if that is possible which sat would be main focus on existing 85cm dish to ensure...

Bar can be offset but there is no height adjustment/movement on LNB holders unfortunately,so not holding out too much hope in clearing all sats even with extended bar!

Hi Sonnetpete, thanks for confirming issue with length of bar. I actually have a second Gibertini bar which an engineer at work thinks he can adapt to extend existing bar on dish, so will it give it a go once its fitted. Don't really want another dish if all fails, but I guess that I could...

One more question before I start tinkering with lnb's, I would ideally like to pick up thor on 0.8 west, is it feasible on this 85cms dish with focus on 16east or would I need a larger dish?

Wow, I am impressed. That's what I call a proper satellite enthusiast:-applause

Hi sonnetpete, thanks for advice. I will move dish focus to 16E first as suggested, don't really want to fork cash for more lnb's if possible at moment. Got a couple days off soon, so will post back with results:)

Do you think that current set coordinates on motor are making dish slightly misaligned( don't really want to take motor off) ? I have seen loads of photos of members on various satellite forums with even more lnbs on their system including 16 e without issues, that is why I assume there is a...

Attached photo shows my dish set up with lnb's left to right 28 e, 23e,19e(main focus),16e, 13e,9e which I put together last year before winter. There is a motor still attached on back of but is disconnected. I get very strong signals on 4 lnbs whatever the weather except that I can't get a...

Hi Marius, I have latest phantom patch(1.40p) installed, I take it card would clear ok on this patch?

OK, so nano says I need cam and I presume marius says I don't. I am going to purchase cam and card just to be sure there are no probs, I can get both from Amazon Italia for around 70 quid delivered to UK.

Dear all, Can someone please confirm if following is feasible: My Italian mother has an active HUMAX 5600S Tivusat receiver and I have a Technomate 5402HD receiver. If I purchased a Tivusat smartcard ONLY and activated it in my mother's Tivusat receiver, would I be then be able to clear...

I have uploaded photo of dish before it was taken down. It was mounted on a long pole with T&K brackets fastened to wall and patio to side of extension at back of house. Decided that I am not gonna bin if I can't flog it. I have room at work for storage so will keep it there, might even make...

Posted ad in classified section for £80.00 all in, no sign of any interest at all so far! I'll give it another week before I dismantle it out of mum's garden:(

I have a 1.2m dish( I am told is made by Prodelin) and polar mount to sell which belonged to my late father. Motor has not been used for years but was apparently in working order at the time. . LNB definitely working as was used until very recently pointing at Hotbird satellite. Buyer will need...
