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. | An Octo LNB will be fine, but it needs to be one designed for the minidish.

Sometimes the weight on the Octo tends to pull the dish down a little. Do this an you should be fine | ||
