    A little advice please

    Thank you. Yes the TM was working fine with the old card in the 1600CI+ . I have the new card and its been activated and I have left on for several hrs on a channel they recommended but still getting scrambled channel message. The box is receiving free channels. I might dust off the TM5400 and...

    A little advice please

    Not been here for a while,house move,children etc.I have had to dig out my trusty old Technomate 1600CI+ and replace the TKN I was using (I misplaced the old card).Is there a specific way the card has to go in the slot eg sim facing up or down?Ive checked the old manual and there is nothing in...

    Well they have re installed the dish with a some what small dish and a new position.Its only a single lnb set up now.It looks a little safer than the last install

    Two lnbs one dish one receiver

    I have a dish with two lnb's one being used on Hotbird 13 and the other one I want to use for 28E.Do I just put the the cables from the lnb's to a diseqc switch then run one cable from the switch to my receiver and config my receiver to suit?Is it that straight forward?

    Dreambox 800Hd or 8000Hd??

    Just a quick update.I went for the DM800 and am very happy with it now.There were some issues with setting it up but a friend who has had one for years spent a few hrs with me and got it sorted.I wish I had got one earlier viewing with HD on my new LED tv is amazing.I just need to do more...

    One more to the collection

    I think of it as recycling.A chap over the road from me has a motorized set up but the lnb arm swings in the wind as its broken.I have offered to take it down for him(so I can repair for myself) but hes not interested.Its been there for years

    One more to the collection

    I'm not really sure about the LNB'S as I bought the dish on *bay and the LNB's were on it I shall take a look tomorrow.Yes the trusty old TM5400CI+ Its great as I can use the Polsat card and cam in it as well as a TNK card.Ive just purcased a Dreambox so will able to use HD

    One more to the collection

    Well I had this dish kicking around for a while and as the inlaws are staying I got round to putting to use so they could watch Polsat in the spare room.Its not the ideal mount but hey its Sunday and most shops are closed.As you will see from the pictures the results are what I would consider ok :D

    Whats the best cable?

    Yes I did know I just stripped back to see what it was like.Its all done now.Just been tinkering with the DM and reading lots about setting it up for my needs.Its one hell of a learning curve from using the TM5400.Fingers crossed it will all be hooked up and running this weekend
