I don't know much about the technicalities of satellite reception hence my two maybe silly questions but help will be appreciated.
I only became interested in DSat to be able to receive English main terrestrial channels from my place (Central Europe).
For this I bought and installed a Pace digibox with an FTV card , a 90 cm dish and a single LNB, pointed it at 28,2 E and have been watching what's there for about 2 years now.
I now discovered that there are other things out there which I might like to watch, especially at 1W and 30W. After reading a little on this forum I discovered that the way to go about it is buy a twin (or quad LN (I don't want to go for motorised dish), further I found out that the satellites shouldn't be more than 45 degrees apart if to be caught on a single dish.
So I decided now to buy a second dish on which to watch these two (1W and 30W) (I will leave the first set-up untouched for 28,2)
Questions:
1)Can I get these two with another 90 cm dish and a twin LNB?
2) I noticed that the SR ( I have no idea what SR is but I know how to set it in Manual tuning option)for some of the channels I am after on the new satellites are e.g. 26 000 or 28 120 whereas my digibox only offers 22 500 or 27 500. Does this mean I cannot receive this on my digibox and would have to buy another digital receiver?
Thanks for any advice
