I have a 1000d tm with a twin mono block that picks up astra and hotbird. It can get lots of movies and as for porn there is shitloads of it. And live premiership footy as well. I would reccomend the twin monoblock to anyone who is not thinking of getting a motorised dish as astra and hotbird offers enough entertaining channels.

btw, bought the twin monoblock of ebay for twenty quid well worth it!!
 
thanks ill look in too it more, and have a look around for prices.
 
lnb

which type of lnb is required to pick up these 2 sats? will a lnb off a sky digital dish mounted on a 80cm dish work?
 
a monoblock lnb will not fit onto a sky dish, and a sky dish wont get you a strong enough signal for all the channels, especially in the rain. for astra 1 in the uk you need at least a 60 cm dish and for hotbird an 80 cm is recommended. the best setup for this is an 80cm dish alaigned to hotbird with the monoblock picking up astra 1 as the secondary satellite as these lnbs are designed to have hotbird as the default satellite as standard

hope it helps ;)
