I have recently purchased a Skystar2 and I'm now in the process of trying to find myself a decent(ish) motorised dish setup. I have found the following on ebay and want to know if its a good choice - and if not, could you please point me in the right direction.

ebay item 260070540093

Many thanks,
Chris

It looks OK, but not sure about the dish and you will also need to buy a set of brackets and mast.

This is another seller who thinks it is good to flood the page with a load of guff, why don't they learn that less is more. ;)

Thanks for your advice guys. I'm off to Cyprus for a few days, but will be purchasing the system recomended on my return. In a desperate attempt to test my card today, I unplugged the sky+ box and connected the mini dish up to my ss2. Am happy to report that all worked well.

I've also got one of those type of kits off ebay, although mine was a Triax TD88 dish with the Moteck 2100. Works really well with the SS2 when you understand its quirks (install driver 4.4.0, use the mibi ***** at dvbskystar with ssdiseqc).
