Hello from my cottage on an island near Bergen. Bought the place due to it's location 'in the wilderness', but 20 minutes driving from town. Love the lake and mountain view from the house, got eagles flying around there. Forest all around in other directions.
Finally got a dish up (after 20 years :O), thought I'd did try to keep it low-tech while here, no tv, no internet, but found it difficult and had to give in ;O) 1st up is a 60cm astra 19e, for all the info, nature, civilization, history programs.
The MTI proved the best here, performed useless for any low level sats, but excellent for 19e. Always nice to play with lnb's.
Using a 27" 'gaming' pc monitor, pretty scary good picture, enhances any defects on many programs and channels :O) so have to scale down on sharpness, saturation etc. Still trying adjustments to find a decent compromise. Excellent++ on good quality HD programs. An old Vantage 8000 (production date 07\2008) does an excellent job
