[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 506821, member: 176256"] A satellite dish where the LNB is on the end of the arm hanginging down and so points to the dish from a low angle. The satellite dish is therefore (usually) elliptical as opposed to circular (for a centre feed dish). Sort of. It includes the feedhorn as part of its construction. These are designed with offset dishes in mind Usually known as a Digibox these have a built-in CAM (Conditional Access Module) so that the $;y cards work to decrypt encrypted channels. Note that this CAM is not available as a separate item so cannot be fitted to any old receiver. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
