Hello,

I have a question so answers on a postcard please,
My trusty satellite reciver is geting old so I am in the process of buying a new one. Since I have 1 meter dish I am thinking of a multi lnb dish 4-8 lnbs
1) would I be better to motorise the dish.
2) will my analouge recever still work via the lnb loop through.

any answers would be fantastic

Depends on the receiver - some cannot be patched. Do a search for your make & model using the search button up at the top of the forum

You could do a lot worse than Maplins Fortec Ultra On offer now in Ireland at 125 euros they are including a dish and bracket+lnb at that price.Easy to patch the Fortec have a look at _www.al7barsoft1.com

You can always use a priority switch to flip between Digital and Analogue boxes.
