a quality 80cm dish like orbital/triax or a gibertini(85cm) will get you all the powerfull birds with reliability and you shouldnt lose signal in anything other than biblical storms. like anything else you get what you pay for and choosing quality parts now will benefit and save you money in the long run

Hi. It depends on your receiver type and if its motorized. There are a number of satellites showing all types of football but what you can get will depend on your setup.

80cm should be fine although the golden rule is the bigger the better
as for PLTV, the main channel people watch is HD on 10e so no you wont get that with a dm500s or with any SD box. as its opened by biss key you should open it once you have put the biss key into a suitable box
speaking personally, I would not try lining up a motor with any linux box but its possible if you know what you are doing
my advice is get a HD box if you want the maximum choice available, but descrambling channels is an entirely different topic and will vary according to equipment used. the point here is that there is no easy answer to what appears to be a simple question, but given the right equipment and knowledge and cs it is usually possible to get a lot of what you are after as long as you have no physical obstructions in the way - like walls or trees or buildings
I think some people think you just get a system and watch what you like ! its never that simple

if you have not got a dish yet, i'd go for an 110cm or 120cm dish
that way you maximise the satelittes you can pick up
i got a 90cm dish and i wish i had got 110cm just to make it that much easier

which is what I am using and have done for many years - TD110
I also changed my lnb this year from an inverto silverline to the newer and highly commended inverto ultrablack, and that makes a noticeable difference in reception too

Hi. You should be able to get all types of football on 4.8, 7, 13,19.2 and 39 and 42 east. This includes PREMIER LEAGUE, ITALIAN LEAGUE, SPANISH LEAGUE, CHAMPIONS LEAGUE etc. I dont know how a Dreambox works so you will need to look in that section for help. In my opinion setting up a motor is basically the same regardless of the box. You need to be prepared to have a lot of patience before you get it spot on.
Regards.

get the best equipment you can afford and the largest dish. a triax td88 or 110 with a inverto black ultra will be fine along with a darkmotor or tm2600 but personally id choose a gibertini 104cm dish, stab100 motor and inverto black ultra lnb,regards mdt
