Hi
I installed a motorised system a couple of years ago myself and although I nearly got it right I eventually had to get a professional installer to align the dish. In the end I got rid of it to ensure marital harmony (she didn't like the big dish on the back of the house!).
I'm in the process of choosing my gear and setting up again. I'm going for a PVR box (any suggestions ,tips, info, review sites welcome) and a fixed Dish to cover Astra 28, I've Sky+, Astra 19 and HotBird. I want to use one dish only and put all the lnbs on it, I believe I can do this. How easy is it to set up? If I get a basic meter that finds satellites can I align,say Sky 28, and the other LNB's would be automatically in position because they are all fitted to the same bracket? Are there any tutorials that could help me?
Also is there a forum here or another place that gives good advice on the pro's and con's and features of the boxes?
Thanks in advance
