The lure of the European Championship on HD has got the better of me. I really want to get set up in time for the opening game. The thing is being the tight bastard that I am I want to do the the el cheapo way so I will need some guidance.
At my old house I have a satellite dish which I used for Sky back in the 90's. Can I rip that dish down and use it in my new house? Will I need to buy any new equipment line LNB (whatever that is LOL)
I'll obviously need a HD receiver so for now the cheaper the better. I don't mind buying second hand, in fact I prefer it as I will probably want to upgrade if I like satellite reception. The new Freesat boxes look like good value but I don't want to spend £150 on something that doesn't have a PVR. Can I get a cheaper Technomate that will do the same thing?
I also don't want to pay any monthly subs to anyone so id Freesat my only choice?
Any advice would be welcome.
Cheers
