My System: nothing as yet |
Hi Guys Im a complete newbie to this and this is probably not even the right section to post but i cant see anywhere else ! Basically I want to get a system to get sports feeds, maily tennis but also i want to be able to recieve the SISLink Horse racing feeds located on intelsat 20w. I believe these are also encrypted in 4:4:2 ?! Can anyone give me some advice on what i would need ie dish, reciever etc to be able to pick up these feeds ? Is this a job i could do myself ? Any help appreciated - many thanks | ||

My System: nothing as yet | Many thnaks guys So wod - just as a basic what would i be looking at in terms of dish size, motor and receiver ? Thanks for that Topper but i know for a fact its not fruitless and these feeds get received everyday by people with home setup. I will trawl through some threads on this subject. Thanks anyway !

Blog Entries: 3 My System: Sky+, DB 7000s, Gemini 4.3 in flash, Var on USB stick. Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Unaohm EP313, Swires Annie 204 Spectrum, Rover ST-4 Spectrum. | A search for racing feeds should bring up some of the threads on the subject from the past year or so, but apart from the occasional allusion to people receiving them, there is nothing concrete.
