Guys, I am very new to Satellites and need all the help I can get before I get started.
To start with a pal of mine suggested a Kaun receiver and even got me this brand new receiver ( owed me some money ) plus a 90cm dish. I got in touch with a local sat installer and he turned up, asked me what I wanted to watch, which by the way is Astra on 28.2 & hotbird. He tells me I need a motorised system. I already have a steel pole on the side of the house, which he says is adequate, however, he has not turned up to install the sattelite with a motor.

Where do I go now, as I cant get in touch with him and don't know which motor to get or where from. Next, I fancy installing the system myself and would like some suggestions from you guys, if possible. i.e should I do it myself or leave it to an expert ?:Doc:

You are an expert. Everything you need to know is here. Almost every question you could ever think of has already been asked, probably on the previous page. Just browse the relevant forums and read the how to's.

Make sure your pole is perfectly verticle. Set the angles of your dish and motor. Point the dish roughly south. Use your box to fine tune to any satellite, DiSEeqC will do the rest. Easy.

Not sure about Kaun though? I haven't been doing this long either.
 
Will do some searching and research before I attempt this task ...:banana:
