technomate install

[kyle2211]

hi all,

you'll be hearing alot from me from here on!
i always wanted a motorized satellite dish install so i've gone and took the leap! got a technomate motor plus a 1m dish and a technomate tma-1500ci* (whatever that is), installed it all today onto my south facing wall with zero obstructions! just went dark so i've downloaded the setup guide from the downloads section and will have a butchers then set about it tomorrow.
i'd say i am not totally useless at this stuff but i will need help! i used to install sky with my dad years ago but cant remember much!
ill keep you's updated and if anyone has any input then i'd gladly take it.

cheers
kyle

Shame about receiver, was very good in its day and I still have one.
Once Bulsat goes in next few weeks or so not much that the receiver can get unless you subscribe to a legit card.

thanks dick b, got the dish up and running still got a few tweaks to do but was alot easier than i thought it would be! its funny i called a couple of sat engineers and they said installing motorized dish is too much of a nightmare???
manic would you say i need a new box so i can watch the good stuff?

look at a protek/spiderbox type of receiver.

im so confused now why a spiderbox? i planned on getting my dish spot on and then researching CS to get my channels that way. im willing to put the time in to research but i dont know which way to go!

The tm5402HD would be a good option at the moment
around ?150 easy to setup cs client only.you can't use it as a server.

Openbox ?75

Manic, is the spiderbox gift still live?? Do you know if the 9000hd has a card reader suitable for irdeto, skylink?
