[QUOTE="airbourne, post: 1057135, member: 404003"] Well I think the 1.2 channel master dish may not be on as its a long long way from where I am and I don't see me driving 300 miles to collect it! I've been looking at the other dishes on sale at 1 to 1.2m. Most of them are made of steel. Some have motors and LNBs but I really don't know if any of them are worth buying. I have good fabrication experience so I could modify whatever needs beefing up to support the LNB. Perhaps someone could advise me what to look for. Tecnomate and Gibertini plus all the ones that the seller doesn't know what it is. I was thinking that with my lack of knowledge in mind it may be a good idea to buy say a steel 1 or 1.2 mtr dish with a motor on it and put my money into a decent receiver. I could then just wait for a channel master to come available a bit closer to home. Just as a matter of a mention, I was in conversation the other day with a guy who sells sky packages and he recons that "they" whoever they are, will prevent us from getting onto the satellites across Europe. As far as I recall, "they" have been trying to do that in Spain for as long as I can remember but they haven't got there yet! Steve [/QUOTE]
