I am writing this as i've noticed a lot of dreambox newbies asking a sky dish question.
I have a motorised dish 1.1m and pick up everything but i noticed a few of you have bought a dreambox and are panicking you need a dish from nasa.And might even get rid of it due to this.
I can state for a fact that when i first set mine up i recieved loads of channels from Astra 19e, Hotbird 13e, Thor 1 and even Hispasat 30w on a sky dish.
You will need a sat meter £10 ebay but it is easily done. It was as i remember also bloody good fun. "aaahh good times"
My mate still hasn't bothered to get a big dish and just turns his via a little mark he's made on it from astra 19 to hotbird.
I realise this dish limits your options somewhat and might not be possible in some cluttered areas but its well worth a go if thats all youv'e got or can afford for the time being.
