[QUOTE="gameboy, post: 126344, member: 177511"] When you say extra channels - you will get any free-to-air channels transmitted from the satellites you point the dish at. This will depend on the dish size and area covered by the FTA channel. Check lyngsat.com. I think this receiver is made by Comag and previous receivers have been patchable to receive 'extra' channels on some satellites. No guarantees as I haven't seen any patches for this receiver - yet! The complete system include a smaller dish and dual LNB - may be worth it to start you off. The larger dish will help but you will also have to buy the LNB (included in the package). Both receivers are the same. As the meter is only £3.99 I would buy it - amazing how much time that will save you. You can't watch or hear the TV from up a ladder where the dish is. It can be done but the meter will make it a lot easier. Better get in before me, as I plan to get as many meters as I can get my hands on - then sell them! We I am Scottish. [/QUOTE]
