Advice on good dish, motor etc

[Trapex]

Hi,

I have a dreambox 800HD on the way and looking at getting a motorised dish setup etc for freesat 28.2 and hotbird 13 and maybe flicking around others at a later date.

I wanted to get the best signal possible(on a reasonable budget) from an 80cm dish and wasn't sure which LNB/dish would provide this. I was looking at the setup on the following link and wondered what you guys think?

Thanks for your help...

That package looks ok, LNB is a good one. I would opt for a 1m dish though, you will be able to pick up those few extra channels, and it's not that much bigger.

i would opt for an 88cm or 1.1m Triax dish and go with 0.1db Icecrypt LNB and a good set of T & K brakets and a 2" pole , i do use Darkmotor myself and its very good indeed but my preference would be for Technomate 2600 disecq motor which is easy and very effective aswell .
hope that helps ? :banana:

Thanks for your advice guys, so I've found this other pack which I may go for instead based on peoples advice...

88 CM TRIAX MOTORISED DISH PACK - £119.00 : Wizard Satellite, Satellite receivers, dishes, lnbs and equipment

Is there much difference between the Technomate 2300 and 2600 motors? Is the 2300 any good?

Thanks again.
