    You can Ground mount a Dish no problem and the DM500s will also work problem is its limited to DVB-S and so can decode any HD channels or any channels that have been switched over to MPEG4.

    Apart from that no problem.

    If you want to use the 500s with the $ly dish yes it will work no problem, if you are going to use it on there then download and install the Commado 15 image its is by far the best image for the 500 to use just on that one satellite.

    As for the got rid of $ly question if your thinking of heading the the route of obtaining PYTV services illegally it may be prudent to read our forum rules with regards to Card Sharing, we cannot answer any question relating to this subject.

    Just wanted you to know before you ask
