    Looking for new system

    Ok had a Dbox2 for about Three years now and looking to move into the Satellite scene. I've been reading up and as ever, it's easy when you know how, and not so easy when you don't.

    By all accounts Dreambox is the way to go but i can't find a complete kit, so i've been looking at a Technomate package http://www.wizardsatellite.co.uk/ind...77fcf6b3c7dec0
    Any thoughts on the system and the supplier. Been reading about the supplier and theres conflicting reports although more favourably recently.

    THE TRUTH
    The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

    Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
    The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

    cant really comment on the supplier but i've heard of them and they look cheap m8. i got mine fromhttp://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TECHNOMATE-5400-CI-USB-MOTORIZED-SYSTEM-90-DISH-MOTOR_W0QQitemZ250203658987QQihZ015QQcategoryZ9697 0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262 and can vouch for them,but they look more expensive than wizard.

    that looks a good price for what you get, you could then sell the TM and get a dreambox or keep both

        I ordered my 1m dish and tm2200 motor from wizards at Christmas and it arrived 10 days later. From what I have read their customer service is crap because they rarely answer the phone but what can I say I ordered online and it arrived without any hassle. I got my Dm500 from china.

            Ok guys i need your help . I have sort of done a dry run in the house . Does this look right ?

            following the diagram for the dish, there is an lnb arm which has the reflector bracket attached to it, which in turn has the dish attached to that. The refelctor bracket is attached to a front bracket which in turn is mounted to a pole. I take it the front bracket is then mounted to the pole on the motor.

            Now the front bracket has a scale which can be adjusted from 20 degrees through to 90. I know i have to set my latitude on the motor, but what does the bracket attached to the dish have to be set to ?

              yeah that looks about right m8. the elevation on the motor should be roughly 55 degrees and the one for he dish is what you adjust when dish is connected to get best signal strength

                    Thats only the same as having cams. When something changes you patch the firmware on yours and I change the software cam on my dreambox.
