[QUOTE="Sat-Junky, post: 856299, member: 401319"] Thanks for the replies unfortunately I went out and got a TD110 and LNB before I read your replies. Picked the last one up for £37.50 with a few scratches here and there from Satsecure Stockport they were going for £59.99. The only place I can mount the dish in the garden is above the gutter on my extension as I barley have room to walk in the garden due to extension. Had a quick look at dishpointer.com and that seems to be a better option. I should receive everything between 72.1E and 77W. The motor only remembers 60 positions but there are 131 satellites I may be able to receive is that something the receiver controls or would I have to do something to the motor every time I want to watch something on a satellite that isn’t stored in the motor? As for mounting the dish I was thinking of something like this [URL='http://www.satellitesuperstore.com/gstands.htm#50300north'][U]http://www.satellitesuperstore.com/gstands.htm#50300north[/U][/URL] but there must be a cheaper alternative. I’ll look into C-Tech DiSEqC Motor HH390. I was initially after a VU+ Solo but didn’t fancy paying the price UK sellers were selling it for and didn’t want to import one as I had no idea if it’s a clone or not. So decided to go for a clone of the clone for a fraction of the price for the time being but will upgrade the receiver sometime in the future for sure. I already have two SkyBox in two rooms with twin feeds coming to each receiver but only one is being use so I may be able to use one of these if I decide to go for a twin tuner. [/QUOTE]
