My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me. | Its fine for what it is: The equivalent in many ways of the Silvercrest packages often sold by Lidl. Let's face it, its almost worth it for the Receiver alone, even thought the Dish is small. Depends upon your interests: As an introduction to multi-sat, you'll get Astra 2, Astra 1, Hotbird, Atlantic Bird 3 and a few others. But when you get fed up of re-aligning the Dish every time you change Satellite, you might decide to get a bigger one with multi-LNB arm, or a Motor  | ||

Just read your profile and noticed you're already Satsavvy: I'd say the Aldi kit was a newbie product - a bit retrogressive for someone who already has a multi-Sat system. | ||

My System: FTE Max, Skystar2.3 and Skystar2.6, 2.2m Kinhuge Dish with Inverto LNB and Invacom ADF-120 feedhorn. Pace 1.3.25 and 80cm for Sky. | If that's a 45cm dish then the receiver must be pretty big.  | ||

My System: 'Fortec Star Passion' (& a dead SL65) One of them big Woks on the outside, and a thingy that moves it about a bit. | I saw this advertised, and thought I would post for those who were looking for an entry level system. I started with the equivilent Silvercrest SL65 system. Surprised that there was no mention of its pending sale this weekend, posted this for comments. Despite the weight, even I would never lose a Remote control of that size | ||

Blog Entries: 5 My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser. | There aren't patches for all Comag/Silvercrest receivers, so even if it is a rebadged version of either of these, it is unlikely that there will be a patch available. Also bear in mind that there is very little available by software patch and that which is, may not be available for very long. | ||
