What is a good user friendly sat system to buy ?

[scolly]

I currently use cable boxes and i am planning on buying a satelite system with motorised dish and preferably HD im looking at spending around ?300 to ?400 , my concerns are i want it to last a few years and be user friendly as i have not got a clue on satelite systems . i enjoy the football and documentries mainly . Can anyone recommend a system for a noobie like me to buy ( i have someone who would install it for me).....ps i repair computers and know a lot about Nint Ds DSi and Xl if anyone wants any info in return............Thanks

I would buy a TD110 dish - motorised. A DM800 if your happy with HD PVR with only one tuner. The dual tuners are a little more expensive. Check out the Vu+ or the Dreambox8000HD.

Cheers for advice MrFug , i dont mind spending more on a dual tuner , does that mean i can connect my cable line to it as well ?..........

ps i am just after somthing i can get put up for me and watch straight away as i am un familiar with sat systems and read on here about cs cc cams and im clueless


But cheers again for your response

You can buy the blade hd twin tuner, has cable and sat tuner, so you can connect dish and your cable feed.

Get your self the vuplus duo with a nice big hard drive. then get your motorised dish sorted. the vu duo is the best box on the market with the most support of any dual tuner box. very easy to setup and run.

is the vu+ easy to set up for a novice ?, i have been looking on net for one for about ?285 , just looking at dishes now , i live quite high up in oldham so do i need a 1.1 meter dish . my only other concern is i live in a terraced house so hope the dish could be mounted to pick relevant satelites up . and once again thanks for your replies much appreciated

if ya no so much about computers and nintendos how come your not posting up info more often

you dont need to be helped on here in order to give back to the site ya no

if your in an estate dont think the neighbours will like the site of a 1.1m dish id recommend maybe an 80 will still pick up loads
id also read about and buy a dreambox 500 or 800 hd or similar maybe technomate
and get to no a bit about them best type boxes in my opinion can get a lot more out of them

Mr noobsat has left the building as he has signed up under two accounts with different nics.

If he hadn't made his last comment maybe we wouldn't have noticed. Hopefully his other account is more affable.
