    Dreambox DM7000S

    @ferronik I am trying to figure out how to send you a pm. Can't seem to find a pm link? I need to know what method you will pay and how you want it posted? Obviously can't put contact details on this forum so really need to pm you. Maybe I have to be 'switched' on? Skip

    Dreambox DM7000S

    Hi, I would want £100 for the DM7000s. Postage would be extra. It would be posted in original box, not sure yet what that would cost or what method you would prefer me to post? Cheers, Skip

    Dreambox DM7000S

    Hi, I am selling my old faithful Dreambox DM7000S with amber display. It only has a few gig HD inside which was enough for me (about 6 to 8 hours). Original Box, remote and manual. Can be seen working (Worcestershire area.) I will throw in the 90/85cm Gibertini dish and Moteck Motor (pole and...

    look at the skew on that!

    It is a free program. You can find it here... http://www.smw.se/smwlink/smwlink.htm It was some time ago now when I used it. I initially used it to set my 'fixed' dish at Hotbirds just to see what the angle of the lnb should look like. skip

    Moteck or Moteck that is the question :)

    Christ :( I feel right bloody guilty now mate I didn't know PM was off? I have just looked at my profile and can't seem to find any reference to PM anywhere, apart from email messaging. Is this the one? I have set that to accept now and not sure unless someone PM's me. What can I say...

    Help with new set up!

    Just a thought. On the Motecks there are 2 scales on motor/pole mount. One for elevation and one for Latitude... Have you set the correct one for your lat? I have one but not set it up yet so wil be in this position myself soon lol Must do my homework before I start. If you search for a stab...

    look at the skew on that!

    I dunno if this applies but that Swedish Microwave proggy actually gives a visual picture of lnb angle when on certain sats as well as stating what skew should be. Is that the same thing we talking about?? I presume if dish on longitude of zero then when dish is pointing true south the lnb...

    Moteck or Moteck that is the question :)

    @Happy-Buddah Do you have any photos of the rear of your dish? I am wondering what sort of fitting is needed between moteck and dish because the az-el fitting I have now will stick out too much I reckon. @john_graydon Thanks for that I will take a look. @BGonaStick hehe, yeah true but I...

    Moteck or Moteck that is the question :)

    Many thanks for reply. I have got one now from Ebay, new, delivered for £50. I am not sure that I have the correct fittings for the dish though (Gibertini) I had a fixed system before. Have you got a photo (or anyone else for that matter) of a Moteck fitted to a dish? I would like to see how...
