I am gonna use a skystar2 rather than a reciever, that shouldnt make a difference (with the correct software) should it. I am just a little concerned over accuracy. And i wasnt sure if i needed to align vertically and horizontally?

I am planning to install my own sat dish pointing to 30w , what tools does anyone recommend for installin and aligning?

Cheers, so really TWO boxes are still required? and a further £15 subscription!

So if a stick a 90cm dish up, there can be no complaints (even though it would be a 2nd dish) Does anyone know if 90 is big enough for the NW. The only reason i am goin for hispasat is coz rolfw said there's plenty content, on a previous thread. Main reason being the footy games i cannot...

cheers billynw Will i need planning permission for the larger dish on the back of the house as i already have a sky minidish on the front. Behind me is a railway line, if that makes any difference. thanx

Am i right in understanding that the Sky+ Digibox has 2 tuners in it, and therefore allowin me to view 2 different channels in 2 different rooms? (unless recording of course) Or do i have to pay the extra 15 a month and the 99 for the extra normal box and 50 install fee to theiving bar stewards?

Please could someone recommend a dish/lnb combo for recieving hispasat in the northwest of england? I am gonna connect it to a skystar2 card! Cheers.

I have juts bought a new house and i am gonna get sky but i wanna use a pc-card to play with other sats such at astra 19 or/and hotbird 13. Am i really allowed to put 2 dishes up or can i have a twin lnb situation or even a triple... Don't wanna venture into motorised really coz of the cost...

This must win some kind of award for the 'world's most offical dodgy website'

Whats the story with this Global CAM, does i really work as it claims to? "The next-generation multi-functional CAM. Compatible with all CI-equipped receivers. Currently supports Irdeto, Irdeto II, Seca, Seca 2, Viaccess, Viaccess II, BetaCrypt, Nagravision and Cryptoworks. Works with any type...

Cheers Rolf, you are my God!!! :D Are there any DVB Cards which i should steer clear of, or are they all pretty much the same??? Any ideas whether seca2 and Irdeto2 will be supported by software decoders in the future, or am i gettin ahead of myself now?

Hi all I am intrested in buying a PC DVB card (probably the WinTV) and i just have a couple of questions. 1. I was wondering whether is was worth buying a motorised dish or just a multisat with astra & hotbird LNB's as i am guessing these are the most used satellites 2. Either way could...
