:-worship Do you get the Thor 3 horizontals OK with 90cm up there?

Unused polar mount and feedhorn is result, well done! Try 11823H or 12149V, anything on the Nordic/Central Eu beam, most of the UK needs 1.2 or more for reliable reception.

I've heard of people taking these home on a car roof rack! As it will be you handling it, so of course you will be careful, I don't think a special pallet would be needed. If anything, these dishes are much sturdier than a metal equivalent, as they are not as susceptible to dents or warping...

Se acabó! The last four TDT channels on Hispasat have just been switched off!

Off topic political stuff removed after consideration. Anyway, have you checked out a Nigerian member called Okeme? He was building a 3M fibreglass dish when I last saw his posts...claimed to be getting Astra (not 2D of course) in Nigeria with a homemade dish! Here you go...

As far as build quality goes, there is absolutely no contest...Gibertini is a cheaply made, mass produced, low precision product, while Channel Master is made for professional use, and believe me it shows. Just compare the feedhorns or the polar mounts and you'll see they are in a completely...

Hey Bill, I'd say your alignment is OK, it's just that 40.5w is C band only, need a big dish and different LNB for that. Yes, it is true that for mpeg 4 on 905 you will need a completely new receiver or the cam, no update from Technomate will change that. On that bird, NTA and a couple of Indian...

What is known as the Darkmotor here, is the Powertech DG280. There are three models all together, so what in the UK is the "Superior Dark Motor" is the DG380 everywhere else. _http://www.powertech.tw/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=71 This is the US distribution...

Hello You chose to post this in a public forum, not me. Before posting that PM, I had got clearance from the mods to keep it private. I am not going to enter any further correspondence about this...this box was knowingly mis-sold, so kindly refund my money on receipt of the box. To my...

Hi, Just waiting to get your details, so I can pay. I had to PM that e-mail address, as I did not want that on an open forum. I will be able to check in here tomorrow afternoon. Joe

3% isn't it? I can live with that. I will PM you my work e-mail address, because I get back quite late

No, I certainly wasn't aware of that, but no subterfuge intended:) OK, I'll take the box at £75 inc. Just let me know how to pay. Joe

Fair enough, £75 inc is OK. I''ll reply again when I get back from work.

Hello, Do you still have this?

There is a good deal on these on Ebay just now...in fact about half the price that every one else sells them at, with a 2 year guarantee. Is there a catch? Are they patchable? I was looking for a good blindscan receiver for feeds and I know this may not fit the bill, but for £35, it should be...
