[QUOTE="Robbo, post: 393926, member: 256551"] Out of choice I would not go and buy a minidish, I'm sure others on here could recommend a better 60cm dish than that. For a start, a standard pole mount dish would be more likely to fit straight onto a standard HH motor, alsoI'm not sure that the SKY LNBs have a very good noise figure compared to what you can get with standard 40mm neck ones. But then again, they're probably the cheapest to get hold of, especially on ebay. You could have a look at dishes etc on some of the traders advertised on this site also worth looking. Nope, you could not loop the SAT loop out of your receiver to another satellite receiver, it wouldnt work properly. You would only be able to receive channels on the 2nd receiver that have the same polarity and are on the same band as the channel that is set on the first receiver. I bought my motor from Maplin for £49.99- Fortec star branded STAB HH-90 suitable for dishes up to 90cm. I really don't know if this is a good motor or not. It seems to work no problems though, and was pretty easy to set up. [/QUOTE]
