Receiving Channels via Dish

Coincidentally that is my setup at the moment.
I purchased a LG 26LH2000 in powercity and it has an MPEG-4 Tuner.

I get the four basic channels (RTE1,RTE2,TV3,TG4) in perfect quality with a One For All Amplified Aerial.
It has epg and everything.
Oh and I also get the radio channels too.

But I want to have more channels too so that is why I am going for Free To Air.

Also, does anyone have any experiences of the B&Q Set for 50 mentioned above?

And would I be better off going for a HD Receiver such as Humax HD?

Thanks

 

you can get the BNQ set for 50 and just buy a seperate box if ya want, its up to you what and how ya wanna use it, there is loads of boxs out there that will get FTA or other chans, but ya will need to read up on what one ya want and what ya will get with it, going the CS route, you will need a lan connection on it, such as the dreambox etc

 

Is the b&q receiver thats included any good?

 

Sorry for posting again!

Is this the one you are talking about Mickah?

nope, the one thats in B and Q in Ireland is the complete package which includes the box with it

 

Just got the B&Q pack on MICKAH advice. I have an existing sly dish set up in one room, I put a splitter in this cable before the slybox and ran a cable to the new room. Box set up was simple. Sorry I have no feedback on assembling the dish but my neighbour did it and he said assembly was easy but directing it to the satellite took time and wished he had a satellite finder. For 50 yo-yos though you can go wrong you get Astra 2A/2B/2C/2D and eurobird 1.

 

cheers for the feedback!! so it was worth the 50 quid,

 

Thanks for some more feedback.

I plan to go to B&Q at the weekend and buy it along with a staple gun to fix the cable.

Also does the 50 quid pack include the cable to link the lnb to the receiver(F Cable I think its called) or will I have to buy it seperately? I would need a cable about 15 Metres?

If it's not included, any advice on where to get one.

Sorry for all the questions.

 

the whole lot is included, if ya need longer, go to Maplins for Sat cable
