Hi Terry, Although the weather has been excellent today, Scotland won their 2nd game in the Rugby World Cup this morning, so I have decided that dish reconfiguration is out of the window today. I did make a bonus purchase on the way (by legs) to the local Beer Shop. New neighbours had an old...

Terryl, Your Question ? "why use a motor when your going to have more then 1 dish with multiple LNB's on them? I'm not having more than 1 dish with multiple Lnb's. 1 dish fixed-multi-dual-Lnb's, 1 dish single Lnb with motor Example's, (1)Some satellite's broadcast FTA a live event that I...

We were looking at doing the same thing from Madeira/Portugal, as we are only there for 3 months a year (my wife is Portuguese). The thing that put us of at the time was the poor hardware (reciever) and support that Cabo offered at the time. (2009). I think you need to ask your partner what it...

Cheers Terryl, but that won't let (or give me the option) to have more than 3 fixed Lnb's. But I have question ? I have had some conflicting advice on a simple 4-way with motor. As You said "motor first then switch". Someone else said switch first then you can choose switch port AA. AB...

Thanks OldBen for the reply, After re-reading through my post/question I will clarify: Your first point is correct, my novice objective was to replace a single 4/1 with the 8/1 and add a motor through it. The reception on "13/19/28" on the 60cm is good enough for me (I've had it working good...

FMI What was the cost/package you got ?

Can anyone help me with my choice of switch, that will allow me to add a motorised dish to my current fixed dish multi Lnb setup. Not realy knowing what to search for, I came across this "AXING SPU 81-00 8 IN 1 DISEQC RELAY" for £46 on Conrad-Uk web site. (pics attached). It seems to fit the...

Its also worth noting, that a DVB-S2 capable reciever is required for meo. Which I feel is worth the extra cost now, as it would be much easier to sell on later.

I think you may have to use a Null Modem cable, depending on how old the DS image is. as for its IP address, have a look on your router. Remember factory reset at boot = "Hold up button on front, then power up". Should bring up the menu with serial and factory reset. Also Don't think DS Team...

Now why couldn't they do it like that the first time....(looks).............(And Spec)....mmmmn.... Homer !!!!, yes Marge.

I've had, as my first Linux-stb, the TM600, since December 2009. Its well made, dosen't look out of place under the 36" CRT-tv in the corner. The remote is very good, oh and the picture is good to. I sypathise with Wod, it dosen't live up to what it says on the box. Primarily because there is no...

In addition to the Canarias channels, we got an Arabic channel which definately didn't come from a Spanish Island, probably from Morroco.

Many thanks Adam, I thought it was a bit too good to be true. Telecinco being my wifes favourite channel is only available on subscription via satellite. So looks like I'll need to find a local dish distributer over there. PS Of particular note, the ocean is very flat to the horizon for most...

Hello all, Can someone help me with a reception issue I have come across with DTT (TDT) in Madeira Island. We visit older family 4 times a year over there and on our last visit purchased a DTT box "Shop+2100HD" as the local anologue signal could barely recieve 1 channel (RTP Madeira). To our...

Hi there, I have a basic 4 LNB setup on my 1m dish and have no problems getting 28.2e 19.2e 13e & 7e. There is also enough space between 28.2 & 19.2 to get 23.5e with standard size LNB's. With (28.2e, 19.2e) & (13e, 7e) either side of the LNB arm. csb
