Hi guys,
I just thought I'd write you all a big THANKYOU! for all your help over the past month or so. True, I haven't actually posted anything, but as a newbie who does not want his ass verbally thrashed for asking a stupid question, I found that if you take the time to search here AND other similar forums, all will become clear. Yeah, it's easiest to be lazy. Just 5 mins on this site and you will soon see Rolf and others are the big daddys here, but you can't just ask all the time. Read until your head hurts, then ask - NICELY!
So anyway, after reading here for a long time as I have a deep dislike for $ky, I took the plunge and bought myself:
* The infamous LIDL bargain 80cm dish, LNB, wall clamp & satellite signal meter
* Decided against Lidl's FTA box, and got a Manhattan Plaza 3300 twinCI instead
* Manhattan H-H100 diseqc motor
Took all of last weekend to erect and lign up, but was still playing around a bit, so fine tuned and FINALLY SORTED IT THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO F*CKING HOO*!!!
So, as you can tell, I am now happy. A BIG thanks to ALL who contribute to this forum. You helped me and gave me the confidence to do this myself, and I am glad I did. Maybe get a bigger dish soon!! Last project is an "ultimate dragon kit" I have bought - Dragon CAM & loader, dynamite USB programmer and a tit card. No doubt I will be scouring these very forums next week trying to figure out what I have done wrong this time and why the card is not working!
Thanks a lot guys,
humbly,
Steve
