puerto Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 hi there, i am off down to BSS near cambrige in a couple of weeks to get a similar rig installed. the teleco magic sat 85cm. very very similar to the oyster but a little cheaper and performance wise, all singing all dancing and just as good. plus i get a free night on site so it cant be bad. try calling Brian on 01763 249 749. he is the man in the know. anything you need to know he will help you out.

Pat Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 An 85 cm dish will get you reception for normal sky about as far as Barcelona, then you lose a lot of the channels. Further south you will need a larger dish for good reception. Regards Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsandywhite Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 B-) You might consider this 2.4 Metre Fold away dish from Maplins:- http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?ModuleNo=48743&doy=6m9 http://www.maplin.co.uk/images/Full/a12fb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 all you need is a ,preferably 12 volt sky box and the £20 card. set it up at home and register it with sky, you will then get your local tv stations, channel 5 and many more free to air channels, we've had anglia tv near south of france, brill.
