Thanks for that gents,I have found a site selling real freesat cards for sky £20 so I will get one to try it out...

What would I be able to do with the loop out connection on the Technomate 5400C1,my son thinks that we can add a sky box through it and by using a "Genuine" sky card unlock the encryption and watch the many programs that are not available to watch on this particular receiver. Any help on this...

Ive now got the daunting part of installing the system,its got to be a DIY job Im afraid as I went OTT with the amount I spent,originally it was going to be a cheap and cheerfull B&Q one discounted by 20% as the missus works there. Still it should be interesting enlightening or maybe both:-rofl2...

The part of the mast that goes onto the wall will have 2 x 6" plates welded to it each 6 inches apart with 4 holes drilled for bolt fixings into the brickwork. I know I need to make sure the mast is plumb in every way before drilling any holes,I think it should be strong enough to take the...

The box arrived on Monday with my new system built around the Technomate TM5400CL USB I thought I was getting a Technomate 2200 motor but they put in a Mocheq 2100 ..after a few emails they agreed to change it and so Im still waitig to get up and running. The main problem has been the...

I took all your knowlegable words of wisdom into carefull consideration and with the financial help of my 32 year old son ( he likes mature content and footy) :-rofl2and so we have ordered a full motorised system built around the Technomate TM5400,basically because after a week of reading about receivers...

I was thinking on the lines of a monobloc to pick up both Hotbird and Astra,or maybe a cheap motorised unit. With Freesat being released soon what system would you recommend or specification of a receiver that I would need,I know I need at least an 80cm dish to pick anything decent up but should...
