    No the dish if motorised will allow only the 1 sat.
    If fixed you could have multi lnb for certain sats.

        leave the current one on 28.2e and just get the kit manic01 listed , it can be done diy but its not for the faint hearted and is easier if you have done them before, also check your walls using dishpointer to ensure you have a good south facing wall and no obstructions

        14.5 means nothing to me , and probably not to anyone else either

        30w , 0.8w , 13e , 16e and 19.2e are popular ones

          does nobody else not find the f-con,s on the dark motor rather awkward due to the way its made? i prefer stab motors and always have. id go with a gibby 1m dish above a triax if i had the choice. i also find the elevation ajustment method on the td dishes not the easiest and could cause a great deal of frustration for a newbie installer. my choice would be...


          dm800
          gibertini 1m
          12 or 18 inch t+k
          inverto lnb
          rg6 or wf100

            is there any 1 that can get hold of all these and fit for me
            as some other fourms have said it not easy to install

              Have to agree with you there on the Darkmotor mdt but i am now a convert i always use to install the TM's (Moteck clones) but found the Darkmotor a lot more robust as well as quieter and seems to have a better ARC spread.

              I stopped fixing the elevation bracket on the motor first and now attach the cables and then do the bracket far easier. LOL those Koreans must think we all have dinky slim fingers
