Newbie to Sat Advive Good forum !

[ukpaisley]

Well its been a while , 20 years when I had a motorised system, old D2MAC. My situation no is I have a full SKY system and I move house tom, where I intend to put a budget system up. The main reason for the system is my wife is from Angola where we have just come back from after 3 years or so. So she wants to access Globo and some other native programs in Portuguese. An old mate of mine has put me in the direction of a Technomate 1500, thats what he thinks I should get. Also looking tom to see what I can get away with dish size, but I think 90cm, and looking at LMB the 0.2 look good. Any advice is great, good forum, comes up high on my list for info !

Welcome to satellites.co.uk,

There is plenty of info on the forum and I'm sure you'll get lots of help and advice.

Your options are a budget motorised system (1M dish, DiSEqC Motor and receiver) or maybe a fixed dish system on 30W.

Take a look here, might be of interest.

For some serious brownie points with the missus once you have the dish up get it round onto 7E and show her TPAI Angola which recently appeared! There is no guarantee how long it will stay around for, but would be nice for her

I think this Angolan tv is what she is after as well. Prob more then Globo. Looking at syatems today on the internet LMB technology has moved on, so I am expecting to get good results. Looking on line now to see what I can go for, and a quick survey of my new house dosent look that good, Easy to look east, not to easy to look west. Long time ago thete used to be a big listing in the back of one of the mags showing everything from east to west, and then a list of the dish size, and expected chan, will do some serious research here and the net to find a good deal.

Thanx for the reply!

Also have a look at our forum supporting advertisers, without their support the forum wouldn't be here.

When considering a dish, make sure it's a good quality one, there is a lot of cheap tat out there.
