Hi,
I have cable and I really want satelite to watch football that is broadcasted from abroad.

So I'm thinking the opemedia box is what I need.
Can anyone give me a list of what else I need please?
I know there are various cam's about but what do I need just for footy. Do I need cards? if so which ones?
What size/manufacturer of dish would you recommend ( i know bigger is better) but in terms of footie is there a major difference in what I will receive.
I have a sky minish dish already installed so the idea is to take that down, replace it and use existing cabling.

thanks

Cheers for that,
It's the cam's and/or cards that I'm a little confused on. Soooo many to chose from and the price's vary so much!

Cheers, went for the 1st option.
I'm going to get this set up first and then start playing with everything else.
