you need to do a fair bit of back reading on the forum to see several suggestions mine would not be the F5 or any Sky/Openbox on a motorised system, Find something that has plenty of support for what you want it to do also handy is the amount of members providing Channel lists for said receiver.

tm5402hd,darkmotor/tm2600,80cm or1m orbital or triax, inverto black ultra, set of T+K,s and pole or L bracket. shop around and you could get a full kit for about ?250 to ?280 depending on dish size and bracket and install yourself. if not then factor in ?120 for a pro installer and your talking ?400 all in. it might seem expensive but you will be amazed at what you can get with softcam/b***/feeds/fta and that before you use the lan connection,regards mdt
