[QUOTE="william-1, post: 905027, member: 193781"] I started when digital tv started after watching sky analogue for 2 years via 19.2 east changed over to sky digital then started to experiment with alternative digital receivers on the old 19.2 east dish then discovered that if I moved the dish manually & marked the sat position on the pole I could get 16 east,13 east,10 east ect moved up to a 80cm motorised dish 42 east to 8 west with trees past 8 west :( After trying about 20 SD receivers (Strong,Humax,Manhattan,Technomate,Echostar, Eurosport fta @ 8 west was a good find that lasted a few years, Next came Blind Scan the TM1000D+ Super was excellent for feeds followed by Manhattan & Echolink,more recently the SpiderboxHD9000 & TM5502HD have proved to be the best blind scan receivers now the transmissions have become more complex with 16 & 32 APSK :( now we have Multi-Stream :eek: The game changer will be next year with H265 & a new batch of Satellite receivers hopefully covering 4:2:2 as my AZBox seems to clear less these days due to the use of Codecs :eek: [/QUOTE]
