    suggest you read posts #32 and #39 again

    and you definitely WONT get AD sports unless you move over to the middle east or possibly the med or north africa maybe

    an 80 metre dish may suffice here in the uk, but not an 80cm dish

    they dont all aim at the uk you know

    and in any case if you did get those packages, sods law says it will be on tring at 16e

    you wont get any EPL 3pm sat kickoffs on sly uk , thats a fact

      I've got 28.2, 19.2 & 13e on one dish cost me ?25 for the dish, ?6 each for 2 other lnbs and using my openbox s9.
      ?5 for an lnb switch.
      Job done.
      Although only using 28.2 whilst seasons finished

          I cant really reply on comment 39 cuz the box he is bringing may one of those you suggested he just didn't tell me which was quite bizaare. TV2 PL HD1 seems like they will show a fair few games same as sentanta. Its not even football I want movies and wrestling PPV and boxing would be great aswell. Lastly, i dont know the size of the dish never said he just said he will fit dish box with all channels thats it really Trig at 16e show lot matches?

                    a new spiderbox HD receiver, darkmotor, dish , inverto ultrablack lnb , wall bracket , coaxial cable and connectors would cost around that amount in parts, never mind the labour charge to fit it and align it

                    the new spider would have one year of spider-gift once patched and connected to the net

                    no sea lion at all was costed in the details above, just parts only

                    so if it was what I posted earlier in the thread with a spiderbox HD receiver, and a years sea lion, its one hell of a deal and you should snatch his arm off, then look again after the "gifts" run out in a years time. except next time you can think about a vu or dreambox maybe

                      Hmmmm im having second thoughts might just phone him up and cancel the whole deal. Its a great deal dont take me wrong but not enough premiership football on satellites this season. I think I can manage with Sky Sports and ESPN and ofcourse we have match of the day got a few hours to decide. What would you do pal

                        If it was the spec above....like I been saying the price seems great.

                        I personally would sell the spiderbox, and replace it with a Linux box...like dm800hd or 800SE. And keep the lion for use in that box.

                        But I guess we will know later today

                        I think he well give you an openbox or something cheaper than any of the boxes mentioned above

                            Im not that poor even though im a goooner but looking at the liveonsat website not much premiership football will be on at 3pm like I expected Nova Sports Sky Italia to show atleast 1 game but maybe they may give out their tv listings close to the start of the season. Thats my only worry not enough footballl (england) and thats the main thing for me really.

                              It'll be worth it as you will you will get 1 game from each provider for Saturday 3pm...but on Sunday and midweek should still get all the games.

                              I would say definitely worth it.....and honest...I'm not the guy coming round to sees you at 4 pm
