    Advice Needed 2nd hand Technisat Multytenne arrived dented - will it still work?

    Thank you. There is a man who does car dents just round the corner from me, I wonder if he could do anything? But the cost might be more than a new dish. I can't go down the t55 route until I have moved: listed building in a conservation area.

    Advice Needed 2nd hand Technisat Multytenne arrived dented - will it still work?

    I will try but I sent a direct payment, I don't have any payment protection. It's very unlikely he will do anything. And in a way, I don't want to see him out of pocket as he did me a favour by sending from the Netherlands. Yes, looking again it seems you are right: the arm, which is very...

    Advice Needed 2nd hand Technisat Multytenne arrived dented - will it still work?

    He said the dish was in 'good condition', no mention of any damage. The damage doesn't seem to have happened in transit as there's no sign of that and there is a fine layer of dried saltwater over the whole dish which would have been disturbed if it had happened in transit, but it's not. There's...

    Advice Needed 2nd hand Technisat Multytenne arrived dented - will it still work?

    Sorry, these photos aren't great, I will go and try and get a better one. I'm thinking it won't work, because the dish is supposed to only just work when it's not got a big dent in it.

    Advice Needed 2nd hand Technisat Multytenne arrived dented - will it still work?

    After this thread, I ordered a used Technisat Multytenne dish online from the Netherlands. It arrived today, but with a big dent in the face of it. Is there any chance it will still work? :( I'm really upset, I should have just bought a new one. What a waste of money!

    Combining technisat Multytenne and separate dish for 5W

    Thanks, yes I know about the limitations of the Multytenne. I am in a listed building in a conservation area and have a lot of restrictions on what I can do. I could put a larger dish at the back of the house, but I'm not going to because the installation will be expensive and I might be moving...

    Combining technisat Multytenne and separate dish for 5W

    It's a Sagem one. I didn't hear anything similar about other brands, but I suppose it's always worth checking.

    Combining technisat Multytenne and separate dish for 5W

    OK, I might be exaggerating a bit. I can't tell you how it is now, because my TNTSAT receiver missed a vital firmware update and was rendered unusable, the only way I could get is to work again is to post it to the manufacturer for them to do the update- it's not worth it. At the time, my...

    Combining technisat Multytenne and separate dish for 5W

    The Multytenne has an inbuilt diseqc switch. The issue is combining it with another dish, maybe using another diseqc switch, which means there's two switches, something tells me that wouldn't work? If it can't be done, it's OK, I would just use two receivers. For 5W you need either a Fransat...

    Combining technisat Multytenne and separate dish for 5W

    I could still do with knowing whether I could combine this dish with another one into one receiver in any way if anyone knows...
