Hi Everyone,

I'm looking to install a motorised set up. I want the smallest possible dish without breaking the bank that will still allow a good selection of satellites. Could anyone recommend what size will be best? I've been looking at 80/97cm dishes

Also any suggestions on a motor / LNB etc?if I put a quad LNB on the dish could I run 2 feeds to a Duo and an extra into an additional receiver in the bedroom?

Cheers

whereabouts are you? further south = smaller dish... technomate 2600 motors are good and reasonably priced.. same with the lnb.. yes you can run 2 feeds from a quad to a duo and the other two feeds to two other boxes.. BUT only one box can control the motor, so for instance if you turn dish to 13e using duo, you could only watch 13e on other receiver

I thought that was the case with the motor. I live on the Wirral so North West, what do you reckon?
