Hi, I'm totally new to this; thinking of installing satellite system to get Hotbird (mostly for Arabic channels). Looking for advice with regards to acquiring a fairly good system also want a 2nd receiver in bedroom ( is it poss?) :
Dish size;
LNB;
Receiver and anything else that goes with it.
Ideally want to be able to get most channels without having to pay extra if you know what I mean!! I've seen a receiver on Ebay for £200:
DIGITAL SATELLITE RECEIVER TM 6800 HD PVR USB PATCHED. Is this a good buy for what I need?
I live in Coventry (West Midlands).
A shop nearby has offered Echolink 700FTA plus an oval dish (about 55 or 60cm) for £125 inc cable + installation. Obviously no mention of getting channels which are encrypted. As I say I'm after quite a good quality picture with extra channels at no extra charge; also I would like to get Sky or Astra using the same dish. Is that poss? Also is it necessary to have a HD receiver? Thanks for all the help.
