[QUOTE="sat4xpat, post: 55037, member: 182306"] Comments please on system I propose to buy and questions arising. I am resident in Switzerland (nr Zurich) since April 04. Have UK TV (PAL-I, so can only get pic and no sound from cable/aerial). Wish to get BBC ONE and TWO and some German/Austrian channels. Plan to receive from Astra 1, Astra 2 and Hotbird, with fixed dish and multi LNBs. System I'm thinking of is:- Technisat DigiCorder S1 40GB Triax TD 78 80cm dish with quad LNB Questions:- 1. Will that receiver support PAL-I as well as PAL B/G? 2. How does the quad LNB with its 4 'F' connectors connect to the receiver? Is there a bit of kit I've missed. Do four coax cables have to go from the LNBs all the way indoors to the receiver? 3. Must I buy meters etc. to locate the satellites (I'm retired so time is not a problem). Here's hoping there's someone out there who can help. [/QUOTE]
