It really depends on what sort of dish set up you are looking for. Would you prefer a 80cm or 100cm? Fixed motorised or multiple LNBs?
If I were you I would have a look at Ebay or your local satellite store and buy a satellite kit instead of buying things seperatly as this would be a cheaper way of doing it. But if money is no problem you could hand pick every thing from the best LNB, to the best satellite brand to the best motor its really up to you.

If you go for a bundle/dish pack deal personally i'd also budget for a set of t&k's and scaff pole because the 'L brackets' supplied in these packs are usually crap

So any of the above will be sufficient for the DM 600,obviously some are better than others

Yes all of the above would work with a dm 600 personally I would go for the 100cm with the 0.2 lnb and as dave said it would be wise to buy the t&k's and scaff pole seperatly.
