[QUOTE="Drunken_Ninja, post: 400615, member: 259142"] I'm so happy I found this place :) Ok I have been browsing the web for months now trying to get some information together on how to set up a dish in cyprus. Please correct me if I go wrong somewhere... I am located in Nicosia and it seems I need a 3.2 meter dish to get all of the channels... (although it seems a lot of people seem to have problems with Channel 4) Can this be fixed with a new installation or a larger dish? My 1st question is are there any professionals here in Cyprus that can set up sky for me in a house I am building at the moment flat roof 2 floors? (If I'm gonna have a mortgage anyway I may as well splash out on this one creature comfort) I have seen Iceman on a few of the forums and he seems like a a real pro but does he do installations and supply equipment? Most of the suggestions here in cyprus are that I should get the card and box myself, My father has a sky subscription in the U.K. but I am pretty sure from what I have read that I can get a freesat card if I go to the U.K. on the same address, (I don't want a subscription service)... Now to the receiver/box I hear the old Pace box is very good but hard to obtain and also the Panasonic boxes seem to fair well in reviews, but are there any good independant boxes out there? are these the best boxes? If I get the £150 Free Sat set up from a shop in the U.K. is the box they supply me with going to be suitable for Cyprus? I don't really want to travel the U.K. to get a card and box but it seems you can pay ridiculous prices here in cyprus and the cards they supply aren't carefully selected and can die due to being found to have many registrations at the same address... I feel I am getting fairly close to having the basic knowledge I need to ensure I get the best set up for Cyprus but Desperately need a Contact in Cyprus that can set it all up for me and maybe supply me with a card and box (if they can?) Please help, I am sure this thread will help lots of other members also as a resource... I really need a contact I can trust... I really need some help with this, Feel free to contact me at [COLOR="Red"](email address removed)[/COLOR] or by replying to this thread... Thanks again, if you guys can't help me no-one can...
