[QUOTE="erik1, post: 42465, member: 179337"] Sounds like an ok set-up to me. I'm also a newbie, but have done alot of research lately. I like the idea of a big dish and multi-LNBs (I have a 110cm dish and 2 LNBs pointed at 1°W and 4°W). Not to knock RolfW, but I heard motorized dishes can be a pain in the a**. Plus you have to wait while this motor moves the dish to the other SAT, but with the multi-LNB approach you can change channels from one SAT to another with no delay. I'm not familiar with Technomate, but I'd also reccomend to get a good reciever. Don't try to save a few bucks by getting a cheaper reciever. Humax I've heard is good. I've got a Samsung 9500 which also is decent. Also maybe get Invacom 0.3dB LNBs if you plan on getting some hard to reach SATs. They are more sensitive to picking up weaker signals then 0.6 or 0.7 dB ones. Good luck!! :) [/QUOTE]
