      dish sizes are like suits better quality suits better fit. you can get a 1.1 mtr dish that is not as good as say a gibertini 80cm dish but a good quality dish will shine. holes are slightly less good as the same dish solid. I have the supreme dark motor very good motor a bit fiddly on the lnb/sat box connection compare to the tecnomate.

          The dark motor is a good piece of kit, and I have a solid 1.1Meter motorized dish, Its quality for SNR etc etc.

                  Only thing to worry about is size of dish in my book.
                  My mates big dish is perched high and with high winds its always moves so a problem.
                  My dish is well sheltered and dont have the same problem.
                  Just make sure you use t and k brackets and be weary where you have it.
                  As for dish and motor mine are technomate and are cheap enough and do the job.
                  Not sure what the lnb is but it wasnt expensive so wouldnt go spending more to get the same results.

                  Andy.

                      Yea, like Andy said, be sure to use T&K brackets and a nice solid bit of scaffold.. The cheapo wall mounts some dish kits come with are not really suited for motorised setups, as getting them straight on a wall can be a right faff, and if slightly out you'll lose the arc.. T&K brackets usually ensures you'll get it spot on without fuss, and they're stronger..

                          1m Gibertini dish (solid is better than mesh)
                          Inverto Black Ultra LNB
                          Technomate TM2600 Super motor
                          Scaffold pole (cut to size)
                          Galvanised T&K brackets

                          If you buy the above, like me, you'll be a very happy bunny (or little devil chili thing...)
