My Satellite Setup
VISTA ULTIM
AMD 5600 X2
2GB Memory
Technotrend 3650 CI DVB-S2
Compro 350 DVB-S
Hauppauge 900 DVB-T
NVIDIA GeForce 7600
And this doesnt' work the way I want it too. :(
My Location
Scotland
I live in a flat with a communal sky dish. As I want to get tv from other satellites does anyone know if the Self Sat H21D would be good to recieve Hotbird 13, Astra 19 etc in Edinburgh? I need a dish that doesn't look like your typical dish as we are not allowed to install a secondary dish. Any other Suggestions?

I'm using a PC dvb-s2 card with Card Interface and have purchased a T-Rex with the lastest software. Will this get me much? I know that a lot of services have switched encryption but when I searched king of sat I see that some channels have multiple encryption listed can I just pick the provider that is compatiable with my CAM?

Sorry I'm very new to all of this so I'm still trying to find my way

According to the data sheet and with a gain of 34dBi @ 12Ghz, you should be ok i'd say with the strong birds such as 28e, 19e & 13e etc. The documented gain is as good as a zone 1 although up North your require a zone 2 (60cm). Still waiting for the opportunity to install one myself - Good luck :)
